WaC Battle report and painting.

  I have managed to get in some more War and Conquest games. I am slowly getting the hang of the rules, and really enjoying them. I have the first of two battle reports with my Saxons taking on the Samurai.



  I don't know what people think of non-historical match ups, but i hope its still an enjoyable battle report.

  So as for painting, I failed to get my stuff together for the Bolt Action league, so will be losing points for that, though i did get some terrain made. Now knowing i ain't gonna complete for the painting points i am prepping up for the final league game of the year.

  I decided the last league game should be fun and open to allow players to relax an paint a few miniatures. So i decided on running a "Songs of Blades and Heroes" tournament. It will be 500pts with army list criticized by all the other competitors, so we dont end up with some stupid character builds. 

 For mine i dug up some nice miniatures from Black Hat Miniatures. Some highland dwarves...





  Finally i have been working on some tokens / basing for WaC. Below you can see my personality base made using a 40mm base and filler, so the base doesn't look to chunky. Then my shieldwall markers, to show which units are in shieldwall formation. Simply made out of spare shields.

      Many thanks! Beards and shields are the most important parts of my kind of warfare. :D

 Below is the link to my latest SAGA battle report. Click here for Battle Report  I have also been working on more Saxons so i can change around my Anglo-Saxon list a bit. Currently i'm painting some mailed Saxons to represent my warriors to separate them from my levy. So far i have one unit. They are all Crusader miniatures.

So i am starting to try out my alternative Saxon force. To start with i have a couple of Pillage scenarios. So far i think the choice may well work, though  a Warlord Adviser will be a must. Now to find and appropriate model. Click here for Battle Report

So i have finally completed my unit of 18 thegns for WaC. Happy with them so far. The miniatures are a mix of Crusader and Foundry.  Been chatting to Rob and he seems happy for me to play at the WaC tourney at Devizes (Attack!), so now gonna see weather i can get the time off to get up to it, but probably wont know till after the May  bank holidays ... fingers crossed.  Also i have done a quick video discussing a great youtube channel, the Historyden. Some excellent inspiration for battles and some great knowledge. Click here for for video
