It has just been painted and never used. The miniatures are all Victrix. There are no duplicates with the same body and head among the hoplites. The shields have decals, and all. are sealed with two coats of matte varnish.</p><p>The army consists of 40 hoplites, 12 levy archers, and a warlord stand. They are all on 25mm round bases except for the warlord, who is on a 40mm round base. If you use all the hoplites as warriors it makes 6 points for Saga; if you use some as hearthguard the point total will increase. The 40 hoplites include 24 unarmored and 16 armored miniatures. This allows you to use groups of armored hoplites as Saga hearthguard if you want, mixing the rest in with the unarmored hoplites. Each linothorax is decorated a little differently and is visible in the the rear photos.</p><p>There are a total of 54 foot miniatures and I am asking $350.

The scenario was based on the 1980s tv show Miami Vice and was set up for 4 players: Miami Vice, a Colombian Cartel, the Miami Mafia, and the Japanese Yakuza. As documented in my previous posts, I created the scenario in part as motivation to paint the excellent Brigade Games miniatures that I had for Miami Vice and the Cartel. Research consisted of watching seasons 1 & 2 of Miami Vice on DVD. The links below will take you to the post for the factions that I painted for the game (the Mafia were older miniatures):</p><p><a href="https://mirosgames.blogspot.com/2023/07/28mm-miami-vice.html" target="_blank">Miami Vice</a><br /></p><p><a href="https://mirosgames.blogspot.com/2023/06/28mm-colombian-cartel.html" target="_blank">Cartel</a><br /></p><p><a href="https://mirosgames.blogspot.com/2023/07/28mm-yakuza.html" target="_blank">Yakuza</a><br /></p><p>Each faction started with 7-10 miniatures. In 7TV terms, each was 31 points and consisted of a Star, a Co-Star, and assorted extras. I created custom game cards using the <a href="http://Agency.Crooked-Dice.co.uk" target="_blank">7TV Casting agency</a>, which allows you to edit the profile cards used for each miniature and add your own photos. I then printed them out at a larger size. You never know how the lighting will be and they are easier to read.</p><p>Each player also had a chance of reinforcements showing up in a random location during the game Miami Vice frequently had guest stars on the show, so I chose miniatures that best fit the 1980s setting. Each had a special ability that fit their character. All were painted for this scenario except the Cartel ones.</p><p>Miami Vice's reinforcement was police officer Axel Foley from Beverly Hills Cop (Eddie Murphy), on vacation in Miami. Next to him is ex-Taxi Driver Travis Bickle (Robert DeNiro), who has moved to South Florida and is now a UPS driver, since I have a UPS van. If he shows up he shoots at a random target. Both are from Studio Miniatures/Hayland Terrain who have an extensive line of film and tv inspired miniatures.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGjcvf1j-TA6tstvwWxiPWdAKYeJxKCmXFIAblKLhXB5oX487eHP-N-f3ojIs881z_qUvpOsr7KcRf2SuXbdT3QtwJF8MuS2agE2te0_72CtQG1PKni-_lx-p86Y2eKVDTNx0bHDqeqjfIPzVc3qC_H0NkoRfQ5QuHaf_Qg6puj45bL5YrZqZYRGV0WUM/s940/IMG_9925.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="724" data-original-width="940" height="493" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGjcvf1j-TA6tstvwWxiPWdAKYeJxKCmXFIAblKLhXB5oX487eHP-N-f3ojIs881z_qUvpOsr7KcRf2SuXbdT3QtwJF8MuS2agE2te0_72CtQG1PKni-_lx-p86Y2eKVDTNx0bHDqeqjfIPzVc3qC_H0NkoRfQ5QuHaf_Qg6puj45bL5YrZqZYRGV0WUM/w640-h493/IMG_9925.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEeVNGkSPlJwbDl0rJ6_zPw9lztDd2IFFIrQ06X2VNZo7UK7oWlgf4bWFsPP3OhA0fUlryYnJe2MChDWdPWfE6_D658_8RBAk7WobbdLhgpHrw5qn_EYmj839b0DNnDQRa6I2P9au0sSQiSBeOZxpNfv0_xKA7d0EQq88Iz-524yO_FaCso51uIybUnV4/s827/IMG_9930.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="701" data-original-width="827" height="542" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEeVNGkSPlJwbDl0rJ6_zPw9lztDd2IFFIrQ06X2VNZo7UK7oWlgf4bWFsPP3OhA0fUlryYnJe2MChDWdPWfE6_D658_8RBAk7WobbdLhgpHrw5qn_EYmj839b0DNnDQRa6I2P9au0sSQiSBeOZxpNfv0_xKA7d0EQq88Iz-524yO_FaCso51uIybUnV4/w640-h542/IMG_9930.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>The Cartel reinforcements consisted of two local dealers.

Joining in the action were the Yakuza on a freighter (lower right) and the Miam Mafia at Carfagna's butcher shop (upper left).</div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQbeulKfNwUeaQ6lAipgz_cH-mf4N2DUpnYSymUNTc9PeFdZ2zmqSh_MnVC0n379TetjD_SRXgstpNE3G3y9jun5ARaDvwYrrIZ-OMgZiRq-PnbhCRPwd3wAakxOrCKuZ7jblMgecUYiZWrA7ORS3zYvAvTht_NwLhywbs_jKA0idUGeBG0DrKVDJNtk/s2048/IMG_0533.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQbeulKfNwUeaQ6lAipgz_cH-mf4N2DUpnYSymUNTc9PeFdZ2zmqSh_MnVC0n379TetjD_SRXgstpNE3G3y9jun5ARaDvwYrrIZ-OMgZiRq-PnbhCRPwd3wAakxOrCKuZ7jblMgecUYiZWrA7ORS3zYvAvTht_NwLhywbs_jKA0idUGeBG0DrKVDJNtk/w640-h480/IMG_0533.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><p>Some highlights from the first game.

When deciding what other factions to use in the game, I originally planned to use several that I already had painted such as bikers and the mafia. I happened upon the Yakuza by accident in May 2023 when I was ordering some paint and really liked the look of them. The 1980s was full of stories about Japan business overtaking the US, so I thought they would fit in well thematically and also provide a distinct group that would be easy to identify on the table. After thinking about it for a day or two, I ordered them from a seller on eBay. They are packaged as a 7-miniature set from North Star's <a href="https://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=5906" target="_blank">A Fistful of Kung Fu</a> range.</p><p>For the skin I used a basecoat of Howard Hues Oriental Flesh, a coat of GW Contrast Gulliman Flesh, then highlights with the original Oriental Flesh. Five of them are dressed all in black and white, so I used contrast black and white to do a quick job on them. I like the facial expressions and the slightly different clothing each is wearing. As a nice touch, one has a missing little finger joint, which is a traditional Yakuza punishment.</p><p>The boss on the left with a sword and his ex-sumo wrestler henchman on the right. I wanted to do a tattoo on his chest but many of the examples I found on Google were fairly elaborate for painting freehand. I searched through my stash of decals and found some 15mm Norman shields by LBMS that were leftover from a project at least 10 years ago. Several had dragons, with a hole for the shield boss, which allowed me to cut them up into 4 sections: head, body, wings, and claws. Cutting them up was necessary to fit the available space. I mixed parts of 2 different decals, applied them, then painted in a longer neck to connect them. I think it turned out pretty well.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBEmhmk7MRBfzTRWapXsfZCCqL2j7Y07jKlyOCtNqs43oCnI8USU__v7CAkuZ1DRcIYEW3ZBJtgBdy4_3J7u-i8pJ7E8l2lwojbVOKpBS5-NInxN7uE8AxZ-OdRNrsx7mFsPn5zLvP_cAJ8qMcMPuxSI53CyhKnTTjnamkQO9YyLlUprLRohDlM3F6yEk/s875/IMG_9953.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="594" data-original-width="875" height="434" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBEmhmk7MRBfzTRWapXsfZCCqL2j7Y07jKlyOCtNqs43oCnI8USU__v7CAkuZ1DRcIYEW3ZBJtgBdy4_3J7u-i8pJ7E8l2lwojbVOKpBS5-NInxN7uE8AxZ-OdRNrsx7mFsPn5zLvP_cAJ8qMcMPuxSI53CyhKnTTjnamkQO9YyLlUprLRohDlM3F6yEk/w640-h434/IMG_9953.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnUCalDZ0WT2ZdQeVk84SyarFXC4BGhb6oN5FtHJaolW53rrYz7uhjGAEHOKlCdcihFBwJX86wuIbMP7zIln_2OyCpr6UogTYsMr1Gc3Bhi3Tstf6YCkCfauM_t9tSjJsKYPUUTEeLui_06VDelyNdfm7cxJ6-KRcdSIcdE7b97quJMUMn1F-d-avQwds/s932/IMG_9956.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="688" data-original-width="932" height="472" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnUCalDZ0WT2ZdQeVk84SyarFXC4BGhb6oN5FtHJaolW53rrYz7uhjGAEHOKlCdcihFBwJX86wuIbMP7zIln_2OyCpr6UogTYsMr1Gc3Bhi3Tstf6YCkCfauM_t9tSjJsKYPUUTEeLui_06VDelyNdfm7cxJ6-KRcdSIcdE7b97quJMUMn1F-d-avQwds/w640-h472/IMG_9956.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Three rank-and-file Yakuza who are very well-armed.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyRVXmaHzVivy97rFIsYCllXn2RZENQVGfqooKAyl1HDvEWnPnc5iO0TDrO28c0mnM4BPtPFMk6SeF5L1z_CPbsiAsTUa8kp0i-z3mFw6jlNpambQLI6n4l_OxCErWXPuIcHgJAF8vTPpymTTz7KZ0kHZUGhlkbpslxJb35sOHz1DqsXiX_zE2h8zjBG8/s1481/IMG_0108.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="730" data-original-width="1481" height="317" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyRVXmaHzVivy97rFIsYCllXn2RZENQVGfqooKAyl1HDvEWnPnc5iO0TDrO28c0mnM4BPtPFMk6SeF5L1z_CPbsiAsTUa8kp0i-z3mFw6jlNpambQLI6n4l_OxCErWXPuIcHgJAF8vTPpymTTz7KZ0kHZUGhlkbpslxJb35sOHz1DqsXiX_zE2h8zjBG8/w640-h317/IMG_0108.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicuxFj1b2X9U1afI6UAs7Yv9YG7LAfATHLbTTDjcCloMsMLrXu811tCPG-kwFa4DAJt6k5T6V5gac3ZC_F_I_IMfX_u9M1o_qVS9WPHXlmENdZPD0vqp17po-zvQAzfT5QyqxcNDg3QmrZl6704FmziBVre1T_gW_5a-oGlt68ZN5HwmhJfwkgk4P1Yow/s1421/IMG_0110.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="719" data-original-width="1421" height="325" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicuxFj1b2X9U1afI6UAs7Yv9YG7LAfATHLbTTDjcCloMsMLrXu811tCPG-kwFa4DAJt6k5T6V5gac3ZC_F_I_IMfX_u9M1o_qVS9WPHXlmENdZPD0vqp17po-zvQAzfT5QyqxcNDg3QmrZl6704FmziBVre1T_gW_5a-oGlt68ZN5HwmhJfwkgk4P1Yow/w640-h325/IMG_0110.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">Two junior Yakuza.

The Miami Vice Squad consists of 11 miniatures. Nine are from Brigade Games <a href="https://www.brigadegames.com/brigade-games-drug-war-z?viewall=1" target="_blank">Drug War Z</a> range, while two are by Studio Miniatures (now available from <a href="https://haylandterrain.com/en-us/collections/28mm-modern-miniatures?page=1" target="_blank">Hayland Terrain</a>). I have all the Brigade police models except for one which I overlooked during my original purchase. If they need backup, I have several police from Crooked Dice in and out of uniform.</p><p>As I noted in my previous post on the Colombian Cartel, I painted these models in order to use them in a game I am running at Historicon 2023. I will be using the 7TV rules, which are perfect for this sort of scenario. I painted them in spring 2023. Research consisted of watching the entire first and second seasons of Miami Vice on dvd, courtesy of my local library. I haven't watched the show since it was first on in the 80s, and I thought it held up fairly well. It also adjusted my usual color palette towards the brighter end of the spectrum. I primarily used bright colors from an old Citadel paint set, Vallejo, and GW Contrast paints. </p><p>The detectives are all in plain clothes, and like the Cartel models, are very well sculpted. They had minimal flash, painted up well, and were fun to paint . Most are armed with pistols so they will be outgunned by their criminal opponents. Just to get you into the mood: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEjXPY9jOx8" target="_blank">Miami Vice theme</a></p><p>The stars of the show (l-r): Detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs (with his favorite sawn-off shotgun). I admit that I didn't try and paint Crockett's trademark stubble because I couldn't find a technique I liked and thought would look right. These are the versions from Studio Miniatures/Hayland Terrain. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUdc8Ejq7jB4y2D4DbbFkWbfCcOo7MrQnajJmuV32B2uQRypy93nW9R3fMLPKTZnlsWYls0pFssyDbMC9kuiTyZwu_OJDhWjWdveCddA1r1vBz6x2nVNLPqYb3QfQNAywMj8L-mx-VIq8TZgFDmf5I-IVn9ejNqKPK-WGyKKgT2QZaqMYE8aduXb-Quxw/s819/IMG_0206.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="647" data-original-width="819" height="506" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUdc8Ejq7jB4y2D4DbbFkWbfCcOo7MrQnajJmuV32B2uQRypy93nW9R3fMLPKTZnlsWYls0pFssyDbMC9kuiTyZwu_OJDhWjWdveCddA1r1vBz6x2nVNLPqYb3QfQNAywMj8L-mx-VIq8TZgFDmf5I-IVn9ejNqKPK-WGyKKgT2QZaqMYE8aduXb-Quxw/w640-h506/IMG_0206.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH7am96Zao1c2bbdLmpiLfh5lVY_XHjR8Pm3QZwUW4Qqsw1O7ZvSa3Odq_WWwevbAootjlpfWOMZjmd6yFzST6_du76eDXXeVRoWQrexDmkQfj7MGwBj1TeV3M_pWINNyA837wHF5fG133Zf6x8EkfzEZJfLplD2rL8zuHhDPDMGcY25IOMxAdh7DSmsc/s741/IMG_0215.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="589" data-original-width="741" height="509" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH7am96Zao1c2bbdLmpiLfh5lVY_XHjR8Pm3QZwUW4Qqsw1O7ZvSa3Odq_WWwevbAootjlpfWOMZjmd6yFzST6_du76eDXXeVRoWQrexDmkQfj7MGwBj1TeV3M_pWINNyA837wHF5fG133Zf6x8EkfzEZJfLplD2rL8zuHhDPDMGcY25IOMxAdh7DSmsc/w640-h509/IMG_0215.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>Lieutenant Castillo, played by a young Edward James Olmos.

One idea was to run a Mimi Vice-themed game using the 7TV rules, which would be perfect for this sort of game. I estimated that I already had most of what I would need, albeit unpainted Back in 2020 I had backed a Kickstarter by Brigade Games for their Drug War Z range and had bought all of the Cartel and DEA packs. They were still in my unpainted pile and this project would give me a reason to paint them.<div><br /></div><div>I started with the 18 Cartel miniatures. Colombians were frequent villains on Miami Vice. While I wouldn't need all 18 for this scenario, I wanted to paint them in one batch. I knew I would need some new pastel and/or bright paints. By chance, while still at Historicon 2022, I was talking to another flea market seller at the end of a session and I walked over to his table while I was packing up. He happened to have an old boxed set of Citadel edge paints, 9 pastel colors, for $10. They were unopened and still liquid, so I decided to give them a try. </div><div><br /></div><div>The Citadel paints worked well over white and light colors. I also used Vallejo and a few GW contrast paints. I painted these miniatures in winter and spring 2023. They are nice miniatures, cleanly sculpted with a variety of weapons and good period details such as wristwatches and rings. There is a mix of facial features, hairstyles, and body types. They are now available at <a href="https://www.brigadegames.com/brigade-games-drug-war-z?viewall=1" target="_blank">Brigade Games</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>My research for this project consisted of watching the first and second seasons of Miami Vice on dvd, courtesy of my local library. It certainly adjusted my color palette to feature lots of bright colors and white pants!</div><div><br /></div><div>Hitman on the left, the Cartel Boss on the right. Did I mention the white pants?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV9A3CicUvNueTx3ywTmevHVdn7X3JOmO60dyFDchLCtFfZT74WnBhm8bmox2gzhhIgO4R604zzgmAhUQlVW3fiNe4Q-s27hVFvdxybjhObm0903m04HDGC16Or-_RPAPS5pJBHjaN5vH7rCJEFGVo9hqjDTHUM097gr0n1nrIBGQOx0lR7eua9uzYfbE/s862/IMG_9992.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em;

They are all from <a href="https://hfminis.co.uk/" target="_blank">Hasslefree</a> and were purchased in 2021/2022. These are the last miniatures that I have from them, so I can move on to some other sections of the lead pile. One thing I really like about Hasslefree is that they portray different body types (male/female, height, weight) while also making them suitable for handling in games. I have bought female miniatures in the past from other manufacturers that were so thin and fragile that they were unusable.</p><p>Photos were taken on a warm March morning. During the first attempt, there was a lot of pollen in the air and it got everywhere. After a thorough brushing-off I tried again the next day. The descriptions are from left to right and the names are from the Hasslefree website.

I already have Iberian and Epirot armies for AoH and wanted to add a Roman army, since historically they fought all the other armies in the AoH book. I 've also watched several battle reports on Youtbe with Romans (mostly from Graham's Wargame Vault) and wanted to try out their battleboard.</p><p>I wanted to build an army that followed the historical organization of a Republican Roman army. For Saga, that translated into 1 unit of Velites (levies in Saga), 3 units or maniples of Hastati (Warriors), 3 units of Principes (also Warriors), 2 units of Triarii (Hearthguard), and a mounted general. I've already painted the 4 mercenary options available to the Romans (Cretan archers, psiloi, thureophoroi, and Samnites). I didn't want any Roman cavalry as they didn't fit how I want to play the army.</p><p>Once I knew what units I wanted to include, I looked at several manufacturers to calculate how much it would cost for each one. In the end I chose Victrix miniatures in plastic. I ordered the Rome's Legions of the Republic (I) box from Caliver Books. It has 18 Velites and 42 legionaries in mail, which is how I wanted to depict them. The only thing missing was a general, so I added a Crusader Republican Roman General pack, which comes with 1 foot and 1 mounted general. I also bought a pack of 8 Crusader Republican Roman Triarii from Noble Knight. You can build Triarii with the Victrix box, but I wanted to use all the Victrix for the Hastati and Principes.</p><p>I sorted out the parts and made 3 units each of Hastati and Principes, even though they aren't differentiated in Saga. There are 3 different types of right arms in the set (upright pilum, throwing pilum, and sword). I decide to use the same type of arm within each unit to give them a more 'regular army' look. So the Hastati have one unit with upright pila, one unit throwing pila, and one unit with drawn swords. The Principes have the same organization. There are 6 different legionary bodies, so only 1 unit has any duplicates. I saved 2 legionary bodies to use as musicians for the general's stands. I plan on using the Hastati and Principes in units of 6 to take advantage of the abilities on the Roman battleboard. There are 40 in total, so 2 of the Hastati units have 8 miniatures in order to make 5 points of warriors for Saga. I have 6 Velite bodies and lots of spare parts left over, I am sure they will be useful for something else in the future. I split the Triarii into 2 units of 4 and used some of the spare shields from the Victrix set so that they would match. I used LBMS shield decals, which come in 2 halves for the scutum so are a bit tricky to cut out and apply.</p><p>I started out by painting one unit of Hastati at a time to work out my color scheme. I gave each troop type a different tunic and shield color/design for aesthetic purposes. After that, I painted the 8 Triarii, then the 12 Velites, all the Principes at once, and finally the generals and musicians. It was a fairly quick project for me. I started painting the week after Historicon on 25 July, and finished at the end of September. I worked on a few other projects at the same time. I am very happy with the results, Victrix are nice miniatures and after using them for my Iberians and some of my Epirotes I have gotten the hang of assembling them quickly. Also with the thickness of the pila I am not concerned about breakage. It was nice to paint uniforms again.</p><p>The mounted Consul or Tribune of my army. I managed to fit a musician on the base as well.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK8FKVbeWJHLInoffvEryw9JgoK0NvrdJzOSBgL3MV3JYRXKsKJHEOndxvca6XzFe5uyCS-RqgsasgRY3TEEIihKRkTXOL85aRxP2c90spx6BBEhh_KZS_6crAt_mN8momb_S8w_UIkJFX3PA_wqacgKvZgt543kXUGrOM6LWsYnvFibAFzYH2duTb/s913/IMG_8195.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em;

The Hero is on a dog and has another trusty dog alongside. And of course Gandalf is included. They have never been used and are 44 points in the Hordes of the Things rules.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwKqCHNElrfLm2b70UnSSNLhtLOH3kHWLAnY3LUbb5oootlAHh1d9aeTv8wyhWJaiSBYp1CVUhGtPwrEig-zCvxkDxOUoth0HwzmyF3-JnxfGzmaa_eQlVB4zr36aVYocCr3indg3rjwvcrmSv8gc3oQuUVu8y8fQyiTUFIU_98l63bTa2PJxAB-0z/s1450/IMG_7579.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="348" data-original-width="1450" height="154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwKqCHNElrfLm2b70UnSSNLhtLOH3kHWLAnY3LUbb5oootlAHh1d9aeTv8wyhWJaiSBYp1CVUhGtPwrEig-zCvxkDxOUoth0HwzmyF3-JnxfGzmaa_eQlVB4zr36aVYocCr3indg3rjwvcrmSv8gc3oQuUVu8y8fQyiTUFIU_98l63bTa2PJxAB-0z/w640-h154/IMG_7579.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7RK4Y5_dxe8YW42PsibuEB0fIwy44iZd3UsTPnDDWf5EuovQf1SlBGSVPMCuIQ9AWHVOUjA_6dkG3ym3PA8rN5ojgZ1xeEns1LKXGk0tF2iR_g8R7hqjnIamBKMnc3vu8dz_-Mos_117RZUdSWVjpXgcEYp6o0MCzAErZY2PKBpfBzA2yrTy-SBFp/s1435/IMG_7581.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="307" data-original-width="1435" height="136" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7RK4Y5_dxe8YW42PsibuEB0fIwy44iZd3UsTPnDDWf5EuovQf1SlBGSVPMCuIQ9AWHVOUjA_6dkG3ym3PA8rN5ojgZ1xeEns1LKXGk0tF2iR_g8R7hqjnIamBKMnc3vu8dz_-Mos_117RZUdSWVjpXgcEYp6o0MCzAErZY2PKBpfBzA2yrTy-SBFp/w640-h136/IMG_7581.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0eyrlZtynx2ynhP88DOZrv47QA66sqsNgYtyE0EIsoO8KiXGkiTSf19SiVMx4v9DYnFoYki_QS_8ORqM64M2aEb7KPYqYNOxIjTna5F171vRHvJE3ewzUNnnL9nS1AZ5Xz0GxCHmQeUYkLwkr1lx0aYkn5ZCsxlX_ZXxG-coaw8K4UMvy0kB_ObVS/s1491/IMG_7583.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="546" data-original-width="1491" height="234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0eyrlZtynx2ynhP88DOZrv47QA66sqsNgYtyE0EIsoO8KiXGkiTSf19SiVMx4v9DYnFoYki_QS_8ORqM64M2aEb7KPYqYNOxIjTna5F171vRHvJE3ewzUNnnL9nS1AZ5Xz0GxCHmQeUYkLwkr1lx0aYkn5ZCsxlX_ZXxG-coaw8K4UMvy0kB_ObVS/w640-h234/IMG_7583.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Elves $75</u></b></p><p>The Elves are from the old Ral Partha 15mm Battlesystem range.

It has never been used in a game. It is 8 points for Saga. The Vikings are in the appropriately-named Saga Age of Vikings book. The miniatures are mainly Wargames Foundry, with a couple Crusader and Artizan in the warriors and Levy. Foundry Vikings are full of character and some of my favorite miniatures to paint. The shields are mostly decals from LBMS with some hand-painted.</p><p>There are a total of 54 foot miniatures and I am asking $378 including shipping in the continental US. Shipping elsewhere at additional cost. I have comments on this post moderated so if you are interested you can give me your contact details through a comment without it posting publicly.</p><p><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span>The warlord with retainer and his trusty dog with a standard in the background.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It has never been used in a game. It is 7 points for Saga. The Vikings are in the appropriately-named Saga Age of Vikings book. The miniatures are a mixture of Wargames Foundry, Crusader and Gripping Beast. Foundry Vikings are full of character and some of my favorite miniatures to paint. The shields are mostly decals from LBMS with some hand-painted. The warlords and one of the warrior units are from Crusader. </p><p>There are a total of 47 foot miniatures and I am asking $282. I also have Saxon and Romano-British armies for sale.</p><p>They will be for sale at Historicon on July 21-24, 2022. I will be in the flea market on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

It has never been used in a game. It is 9 points for Saga. The Saxons are in the Saga Age of Invasions book represent the Germanic invaders of Britain in the late Roman and post-Roman period. The miniatures are mostly from Gripping Beast and I think are the nicest GB minis I have ever painted. The shields have decals from LBMS. The warlords and one of the warrior units are from Crusader. </p><p>There are a total of 52 foot miniatures and I am asking $364. I also have a Romano-British army for sale that makes a nice historical pair and two Viking armies.</p>They will be for sale at Historicon on July 21-24, 2022. I will be in the flea market on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

I wanted to upgrade what I had available as part of my ongoing terrain improvement project. I needed six bases of each type. </p><p>Along with the ruins and rocky ground pieces I bought from <a href="https://achesoncreations.com/" target="_blank">Acheson Creations</a> and which I posted recently, I also bought some resin pieces to use as objective markers. After the usual washing with soap and spraying black, I painted them with several coats of Ceramcoat Terracotta, then a wash of GW Agrax Earthshade, followed by a matt varnish. I painted watered-down glue on the bases, then dipped them in a tub of brown ballast. After that dried, I used more glue to add patches of static grass and small bushes.</p><p>Clockwise from top left are a stack of amphorae, a large pot which came without a base (I glued it to a 40mm round base), a 28mm Cretan archer guarding the loot and showing the scale, and my favorite piece which has two half-buried amphorae along with a large bull's head; perhaps a relic of a collapsed Bronze Age civilization?</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi6jRe1Z5jYrOZ4MF8v23Dm_1Ivi1AnN1Ezmi0HPBa-xVX8pPda2p5cB9447dpcPF9jsNL5l7IMGJZED8CljbsrYq3bSdnTU6GutqP3epXsX-0GF_pjN_LpFyWCogI1Z9ZF37rWV8QatNeshd-eLuC0m9ucQ2DUF8cWT0GF6dyXNXp0fbuLRgJ-4Pya=s1235" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="876" data-original-width="1235" height="454" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi6jRe1Z5jYrOZ4MF8v23Dm_1Ivi1AnN1Ezmi0HPBa-xVX8pPda2p5cB9447dpcPF9jsNL5l7IMGJZED8CljbsrYq3bSdnTU6GutqP3epXsX-0GF_pjN_LpFyWCogI1Z9ZF37rWV8QatNeshd-eLuC0m9ucQ2DUF8cWT0GF6dyXNXp0fbuLRgJ-4Pya=w640-h454" width="640" /></a></div><p>Four identical groups of amphorae.

When my daughter painted the pigs, we googled English heritage pig breeds and she picked the Wessex Saddleback (l) and the Gloucestershire Old Spot (r).

After some quick paint jobs they were finished.</p><p>For the Manx sheep, one base was painted Iron Wind Khaki and the other left with the white primer. Then I used GW contrast paints (Aggaros Dunes or Skeleton Horde), followed by a drybrush of Army Painter Skeleton Bone. The lower legs and faces got a wash of dark brown.

They would provide the Epirotes that I was building a unit that is good in rough terrain, which the Epirote phalangites want to avoid.. I also decided to build the thureophoroi, who besides having some nice special abilities that work well with the Epirote phalanx, should also be usable with some of the armies in the upcoming Age of Alexander book.</p><p>For the Samnites, I used the 'Samnites in Triple Disc Armour' pack from Crusader Miniatures because I liked the look of the disc breastplates. The pack of eight miniatures contained two each of four different bodies and four different heads which resulted in plenty of variety. While I am not a big fan of separate heads in metal, they fit very well and superglued on securely. The tunic and shield designs are heavily borrowed from/inspired by two books:</p><p>Armies of the Macedonian and Punic Wars by Phil Barker</p><p>Caesar's Legions by Nick Sekunda</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjIO-MlzbhE0vo3kDdJ6s5SvZN6mPaUiyKZ9Y3ypdCxmCuWIsUevncFgaUDE9TCr6c-YgUApz_6HoxZhgO-q41MJw_qO0YpdAgYy9JLq1MUoOy4D9G45HHdfnaX5xxRQ1EU9YOIGsd8lEIvInJFVBwFloMTH97NoBMiLCcWFm6gkU6RAWRQoU7m5Hi-=s1376" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="607" data-original-width="1376" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjIO-MlzbhE0vo3kDdJ6s5SvZN6mPaUiyKZ9Y3ypdCxmCuWIsUevncFgaUDE9TCr6c-YgUApz_6HoxZhgO-q41MJw_qO0YpdAgYy9JLq1MUoOy4D9G45HHdfnaX5xxRQ1EU9YOIGsd8lEIvInJFVBwFloMTH97NoBMiLCcWFm6gkU6RAWRQoU7m5Hi-=w640-h282" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjQb7WuiL_fvv3a5Pw-83B10hf12kT2qukq-ALT8mz0FwNVY9USTd7g9bESEco4bBEUKHh0sE3qzlBgli728YHmO2VPP2mC2DIDbj50Qs0aevTcqQQ_1480hMrNiWh5bIeFXEJgbAQVnp2KxxXpjvVdLPxdUxJNgqOYl5s2zSEouI3Ic3vVLoTj3-Dy=s1336" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="605" data-original-width="1336" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjQb7WuiL_fvv3a5Pw-83B10hf12kT2qukq-ALT8mz0FwNVY9USTd7g9bESEco4bBEUKHh0sE3qzlBgli728YHmO2VPP2mC2DIDbj50Qs0aevTcqQQ_1480hMrNiWh5bIeFXEJgbAQVnp2KxxXpjvVdLPxdUxJNgqOYl5s2zSEouI3Ic3vVLoTj3-Dy=w640-h290" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbc45oX0-FIrvuO4buSSEDfRYNor4YeG0BCNso7pecMCU7KRe-4894up_ADh6EM16y5G1wy9wH2npPhq0aNm4pAhqSai75KzFGs1afGWdoNoL0wxkO5aqQ4ehAfg9uxIy6P1Bf7emCFcuedJVZ5JMp2lCObD2NqWXJDUb8bJwX2o_QRGnAwMIobzVS=s1369" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="1369" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbc45oX0-FIrvuO4buSSEDfRYNor4YeG0BCNso7pecMCU7KRe-4894up_ADh6EM16y5G1wy9wH2npPhq0aNm4pAhqSai75KzFGs1afGWdoNoL0wxkO5aqQ4ehAfg9uxIy6P1Bf7emCFcuedJVZ5JMp2lCObD2NqWXJDUb8bJwX2o_QRGnAwMIobzVS=w640-h280" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAiGLkqdTod45uCkJ68JvqeW3NPMo8ODIq9jtkpg-CJMuPztGSI1KnBQ6dTliEiALvL1zfrxv_lFR3P0ErVeKVWY3ES0t7PbDGEmGKV8yM6oKT68jFqGzgRX6b-zfKkGfC3mfivk6tXg431vH5SzZvv2vMpSEHj0ShAkGqAtIFPV-i0AHLoZMeT1ww=s1376" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="611" data-original-width="1376" height="285" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAiGLkqdTod45uCkJ68JvqeW3NPMo8ODIq9jtkpg-CJMuPztGSI1KnBQ6dTliEiALvL1zfrxv_lFR3P0ErVeKVWY3ES0t7PbDGEmGKV8yM6oKT68jFqGzgRX6b-zfKkGfC3mfivk6tXg431vH5SzZvv2vMpSEHj0ShAkGqAtIFPV-i0AHLoZMeT1ww=w640-h285" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiy7ngC6iSKCsp6VkPjKUFSCnAPz69Zh68EMihAZzv_gBN6KJJh3GNyp1-2baYmTLsXYFf_qGG-nOGlrBm8Zdr5QqYtBr-Q9ycMEaPkQtJ9aNuJs1YZMG7fzWy8w4w-9JkqzOWcIaI519nuHhqF8rQ59ozM5cJrqp-G3r94PD7N--9YLV6VEtPnJfuv=s1416" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="481" data-original-width="1416" height="218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiy7ngC6iSKCsp6VkPjKUFSCnAPz69Zh68EMihAZzv_gBN6KJJh3GNyp1-2baYmTLsXYFf_qGG-nOGlrBm8Zdr5QqYtBr-Q9ycMEaPkQtJ9aNuJs1YZMG7fzWy8w4w-9JkqzOWcIaI519nuHhqF8rQ59ozM5cJrqp-G3r94PD7N--9YLV6VEtPnJfuv=w640-h218" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>The Thureophoroi are also from Crusader, the 'Greek Thureophoroi' and 'Greek Thureophoroi Command' packs.

The primary goal is to cover all the terrain possibilities for my Saga games, though most of the pieces are usable for other games and periods. In 2021 I bought a set of terrain pieces from <a href="https://mirosgames.blogspot.com/2021/08/review-terrains4games-terrain-pieces.html" target="_blank">Terrains4Games</a>. Included in the set were 6 area templates that I could use for woods, rocky areas or ruins by placing different pieces on top. At the end of 2021 I got a bunch of new trees by 4Ground secondhand but unopened. They are great trees but no longer appear on their website so are likely out of production.</p><p>In July 2021 I bought some resin terrain pieces from <a href="https://achesoncreations.com/" target="_blank">Acheson Creations</a>. They have a wide range of items and are my first stop when I am looking for terrain. The owner is retiring at the end of May so I encourage you to take a look and order something before then. Part of my order consisted of pieces to use for ruins and rocky areas. After finishing an army project in late February 2022, I was motivated to paint them. After running them through the dishwasher on the gentle cycle to remove any mold release, I spray painted everything black. Next I used thinned black craft paint to cover any areas I missed. </p><p>Hellenistic thureophoroi advancing past eight ruined columns, painted with successively lighter shades if gray until I was satisfied with the look. The final coat was Vallejo Silver Gray. The stones surrounding the pillars were painted in various shades of gray. The columns will also be useful in my Stargate project.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiEYomaEAJ_xcI7zdxTM5iCeM0dyUM_9cE0Rs6JY32rMRgEgqsLjvP_G8gYCx5ozdexYMllzU_ANmFQr-yp_yPlofl5295TlvN1ram7sL6mDHjVKy3OaohSRJjLuTdI2enNCgzny_nB8Gf9KhigyPj1h6W-WBG6fJ3vj_MPY-gwzqTuNPD_Xj_KUKkz=s1453" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="513" data-original-width="1453" height="141" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiEYomaEAJ_xcI7zdxTM5iCeM0dyUM_9cE0Rs6JY32rMRgEgqsLjvP_G8gYCx5ozdexYMllzU_ANmFQr-yp_yPlofl5295TlvN1ram7sL6mDHjVKy3OaohSRJjLuTdI2enNCgzny_nB8Gf9KhigyPj1h6W-WBG6fJ3vj_MPY-gwzqTuNPD_Xj_KUKkz=w400-h141" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi_bm9VYZoShbdJEHQSdwrjzT_gIyJa4CUrBC2XINowTKzI6e2uP7clTCvqe15uKshoyzW0mtQ2WN4-Ryp9e5uouhFEibn88ZB0eO5YcmZ6KKes758V0xCegwV8cwAYh9fFSc3LsHflLAzx-tm-6wR0zSO_vN0IvtsjWyHtwKXSveT4GyTehjFHm3sY=s1409" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="967" data-original-width="1409" height="275" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi_bm9VYZoShbdJEHQSdwrjzT_gIyJa4CUrBC2XINowTKzI6e2uP7clTCvqe15uKshoyzW0mtQ2WN4-Ryp9e5uouhFEibn88ZB0eO5YcmZ6KKes758V0xCegwV8cwAYh9fFSc3LsHflLAzx-tm-6wR0zSO_vN0IvtsjWyHtwKXSveT4GyTehjFHm3sY=w400-h275" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p>I drybrushed the 12 boulders in various shades of gray craft paint.

One example is <a href="https://fatherandsongaming.org/" target="_blank">Father and Son Gaming</a>.</p><p>Located in central Ohio where I am originally from, I don't recall how I first found their website in January 2021. They were very responsive when I emailed with some questions. When I asked some of my Ohio gaming friends they gave positive recommendations. They have a nice line of MDF terrain and other gaming accessories. Many of their buildings are for WWII but can easily be used in other settings.</p><p>In February 2021 I ordered three 28mm buildings from them. After an extended lull in terrain building, over the winter holidays in late 2021 I assembled two of them: a factory and a barn. The third is still being painted. Both of the buildings were easy to assemble. Although they did not come with written instructions, the photos and videos on their website were more than sufficient. All the parts fit together very well. The only modification I had to make was on the factory floor pieces where I filed down some of the tabs that fit into the walls.</p><p>The factory is a good addition to my modern terrain. I quickly spray-painted it a medium gray. I considered making the roof a different color but decided to leave it all the same depressing factory gray. The photos include three of my biker gang who are doubtlessly guarding all manner of illicit goods. The large windows work well for gaming purposes.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjhyYpKFZMnkq5lpj78JLAatpYL11Be4vlmuP0SyDApiKarL8xUTMqUEItEV_aR3aTVUeMozz8mrhQFXP-Ih34h1QeWrH42Hm6uMWXMJXd0Uoh48k3zYcyfFiNjBnKTGtMLqPPdRvC2xdBgoUGyW3m5TpScw0MXsJuVU_qFM7OHM2lCNho1nhxKKSQi=s1756" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1756" data-original-width="1317" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjhyYpKFZMnkq5lpj78JLAatpYL11Be4vlmuP0SyDApiKarL8xUTMqUEItEV_aR3aTVUeMozz8mrhQFXP-Ih34h1QeWrH42Hm6uMWXMJXd0Uoh48k3zYcyfFiNjBnKTGtMLqPPdRvC2xdBgoUGyW3m5TpScw0MXsJuVU_qFM7OHM2lCNho1nhxKKSQi=w300-h400" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhxpxIxrLaX1FrVh_gB1JJekXwqqBYctdKvsUZ_T6Iyl42JznkGKxHtY0EUQl_UyYU7TAPmhuCKRu9XSk9VXb0adHU2qlY3e2u__mkc0ypbojlspu9W4mEP82plS0JLbrsbkzQ6GYAN7SprfN8gWMxgv8Z2K1Kq9RePBOP2-GFpkOj31e861WLbTcXY=s1470" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1290" data-original-width="1470" height="351" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhxpxIxrLaX1FrVh_gB1JJekXwqqBYctdKvsUZ_T6Iyl42JznkGKxHtY0EUQl_UyYU7TAPmhuCKRu9XSk9VXb0adHU2qlY3e2u__mkc0ypbojlspu9W4mEP82plS0JLbrsbkzQ6GYAN7SprfN8gWMxgv8Z2K1Kq9RePBOP2-GFpkOj31e861WLbTcXY=w400-h351" width="400" /></a></div><div>The roof and upper floor are removable and there is plenty of room for miniatures.

I spray primed it black, then assembled it. I gave it a quick coat of thinned black paint to cover any spots the primer missed, followed by two coats of Howard Hues Wood, then two drybrush coats of Howard Hues Colonial Khaki. A coat of GW Agrax Earthshade brought out the detail. I glued it to a piece of styrene for a base. I coated the styrene with a 50/50 mix of glue and brown paint, then spread a mix of ballast across the base. On the exterior I added patches of static grass, various tufts and bushes. I left the interior as a plain dirt floor. The final step was two coats of Testors Dullcote. I am very happy with how it turned out. It will serve for a variety of periods.

(see previous post). I took a look around their website to see if anything else caught my eye; I already have a lot of their Survivors range for post-apocalypse gaming. The Rasta Gang drew my interest as they would fit in with some scenario ideas I have.</p><p>Similar to the motorcycle gang (and the other gangs in the range), the Rastas included one leader and six bodies (three each of two different poses) with separate heads and arms. There is also another leader available separately.</p><p>One of the things I like about these sets is the variety of weapons available. The only issue I had was that the set of the arms holding a baseball bat broke when I was trying to glue them on and I could never fit them back together properly. I didn't want to use the chainsaw since I had already used it in the motorcycle gang so I ended up using a spare set of arms left over from that set. That is why one of the rank and file has sleeves.</p><p>With only 8 miniatures I figured they would assemble and paint up quickly. I pinned the arms before gluing them but the heads fit securely. I put them together in mid-July and primed them, then they sat on my desk until September 10th, when I finally started painting them. One week later on the 17th they were finished. They were fun and easy to paint. I used a simple color scheme with darker pants and brighter shirts including a lot of red, yellow, and green, with gold jewelry. I used GW contrast paints on most of the clothing. I experimented with skin colors, eventually using four different tones (two mid-brown and two darker brown), each shaded with a wash of GW Agrax Earthshade. Pictures were taken on an appropriately warm and sunny day.</p><p>I wanted to use some Rastafarian symbols and after a quick Google image search I had several ideas. For the leader (King Marley in the Studio catalog) I painted an ankh on the back of his coat that I think turned out well. The bag is from a set of accessories I picked up somewhere.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipI4lLcia48d-Shv5mks_eLrH_ANAaeK4vbjeZmpUSRkQPMeS96EM28Rs79bLOqpRT4gnICPC5zJpFQlZXro3DiXJPxaZHageacFC920mNe4JDp9K0QCON3-RZy8loDiLRYBaqk7xQvqM/s764/IMG_6796.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="764" data-original-width="499" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipI4lLcia48d-Shv5mks_eLrH_ANAaeK4vbjeZmpUSRkQPMeS96EM28Rs79bLOqpRT4gnICPC5zJpFQlZXro3DiXJPxaZHageacFC920mNe4JDp9K0QCON3-RZy8loDiLRYBaqk7xQvqM/w418-h640/IMG_6796.JPEG" width="418" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkz0zpuw3-eswkHoGknITa7_jwNyQl7bwul7d448BdbxEEsYx_SnYcKiRMObsgbMTgVQjjkFnoV70HIpBhNXzoK4JiVHnG-o0IIkECIS5J0zKkS0kippnSYrRrIMl_t2r89p5KPExS1hQ/s836/IMG_6798.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="836" data-original-width="573" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkz0zpuw3-eswkHoGknITa7_jwNyQl7bwul7d448BdbxEEsYx_SnYcKiRMObsgbMTgVQjjkFnoV70HIpBhNXzoK4JiVHnG-o0IIkECIS5J0zKkS0kippnSYrRrIMl_t2r89p5KPExS1hQ/w438-h640/IMG_6798.JPEG" width="438" /></a></div><p>For the second in command, I checked my stock of decals to see if there was a star I could adapt into a Star of David.

I had just finished painting a Viking army for Saga and next on the list was resuming work on my successor phalangites. In between I wanted to do something small that wouldn't take more than 1 week. I decided to fix up my 28mm motorcycle gang. <div><br /></div><div>My motorcycle gang has a convoluted history. Back in March 2020 I realized that my vision had started to deteriorate and my detail painting was suffering. Just before everything shut down due to COVID, I bought a pair of reading glasses for use during painting and they solved the problem. I also realized that some of my recent projects had suffered, the bikers among them. I originally painted my bikers in summer 2019 and they were not up to my usual standard due to the aforementioned vision issue; this project gave me the chance to correct that.</div><div><div><br /></div><div>A motorcycle gang is one of those groups that frequently appear in modern and post-apocalypse settings, so I would be able to use them in multiple games. I started collecting the miniatures some years ago with the plastic Warlord Games Project Z Biker Gang sprues, which were originally made by Wargames Factory. They have been out of stock for a long time as the game appears to have been abandoned. I bought one each of the sprues; together they had enough parts to make 4 on foot and 3 on motorcycles. <span>One thing that disappointed me is that only 1 of the Warlord bikers is wearing a leather jacket.</span><div>
<br />
The rest of my gang came via the 2017 Kickstarter for Turf War Z, which I received in early 2018. These metal miniatures are now available through Studio Miniatures as a set of 7 and a separate leader; The set of 7 has 1 complete miniature and 6 bodies (3 each of 2 different poses) with separate heads and arms. Included were extra heads and arms to allow for customization. Most of the heads are clearly inspired by characters from the Sons of Anarchy tv show, which of course I watched during some painting sessions. After taking stock of all the pieces I had and some test fittings, I assembled them all at once. I pinned most of the heads and arms to secure them better.</div><div>
<br />
The color scheme is pretty simple. Lots of leather jackets and jeans, with shirts mostly in dark shades. I added some different colors here and there for variety. A lot of the Warlord minis are wearing leather chaps for some reason. On initially painting these miniatures in 2020, I came up with a gang logo with the help of Google Images, then printed decals on white decal paper. The design didn't come out as distinct as I had hoped but I used it anyway.</div><div><br /></div><div>The repainting project consisted of redoing the areas that looked the worst. This included removing the original decals and substituting Sons of Anarchy decals that Studio Miniatures now sells, re-lettering the backs of the jackets, repainting the eyes, and touching up anything else I didn't like. When lettering the backs of the jackets I used 'Sons' for the gang name and 'Nomads' for the chapter. Honestly I don't think I could fit more letters than that. The minis with decals are full members. those without decals are prospects or hangers-on.</div></div><div><br /><div>I also made some additions as part of this project. When I was assembling plastic zombies in summer 2020, I had some parts leftover. I noticed recently that the Studio Miniatures zombie sprues had a body wearing a leather jacket. I wondered if I could use them as living bikers. I took three of them and added leftover biker heads, arms and weapons from the Warlord biker sprues. To add some variety, I cut one body off at the waist and used the Studio torso with a Warlord lower body. The Warlord sprue also had a female motorcycle passenger that I hadn't used. I cut it at the waist and used a set of extra Warlord legs to make a fourth new miniature. A quick paintjob later and I had 4 new gang members.</div><div><br /></div><div>One week later and this project was complete and my 21-<span>member motorcycle gang</span> is ready to go on the table. I am finally happy with how they look and already have some scenario plans. It would be nice to have some motorcycles for scenery. If you know of a source, let me know in the comments.</div><div><br /></div><div>Three of the Studio Miniatures. When I did the lettering I used the smallest brush I own. It isn't perfect but at least it's legible.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghUrvXsR42G7xyPYz9krz9ZYFQxXCX1WUT3WVsPVnxbdgdLReSKjC9s3wgGbRKi1WLPzFqiT6051HFtdXD1tkdvFy2PPxK0VaF8tsLPqd4cbOf7LZ7nkweeheB0ThVLIvpw92JMw9b2uA/s1255/IMG_6385.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em;

In spring 2021 I did some google searches for terrain manufacturers and found the Terrains4Games (T4G) website: </p><p><a href="https://terrains4games.com/" target="_blank">Terrains4Games</a><br /></p><p>T4G is based in Poland. Their products looked interesting, and after finding positive reviews of their products online I took a longer look at their website. My specific need was to get a variety of fields, hills, woods and rocky areas that would cover all the possible terrain requirements for my 28mm Saga games. I already have a good selection of buildings and marshes. Of course, anything I bought would also be usable in the other periods I play.</p><p>T4G makes multiple types of fields and hills to choose from. They produce 2 sizes of forest which consist of a base piece and separate trees. They also sell the base pieces separately, which in addition to being less expensive, would also allow me to use my existing trees. I realized that if I bought a few extra of the medium forest bases, I could also use them to represent rocky areas or ruins by placing some of the rocks, walls or fallen columns that I already have on top of the base. With storage space at a premium, anything that can perform multiple functions is attractive to me.</p><p>Looking at the specs on the website, I noticed that the two sizes of forest base were slightly longer than the maximum size allowed under the Saga rules. I emailed T4G to ask if they could make them slightly smaller and quickly received a positive reply.</p><p>I thought the prices were very reasonable and ended up ordering 3 fields, 3 hills, 2 large forest bases and 4 medium forest bases. Everything would arrive painted and ready to use on the table.</p><p>I will note that the time between ordering and receiving my order took several months. This is not a criticism because their website is very clear on their production and shipping timeframes. Also, I asked for different-sized forest bases than their standard products and I expect custom requests to take longer. Both times I emailed to ask a question they replied quickly and provided great customer service.</p><p>I received my package last week.

For the Iberians, the only mercenary unit they can use is the Baelaric slingers so those were an easy choice. If I don't use them as mercenaries there is an option to arm 8 Iberian warriors as slingers so there is a second option to use them.</p><p>The Epirotes can choose from 6 mercenaries, and I chose to build the famous Cretan archers. They were used by most of the Hellenistic successor armies and should also be in the future Saga book Age of Alexander. So in addition to providing support to my Epirotes they should be usable in some other armies in the future.</p><p>When ordering my Epirotes I bought part of the army from from Aventine Miniatures in Northern Ireland, including 2 packs of skirmishers to use as Cretan Archers. They come with separate small pelta-size shields that attached easily. This is the first time I have used Aventine and they are great miniatures. The forthcoming Saga Age of Invasions book will include Sassanid Persians; if I like the battle board I will definitely be using Aventine to make the army.</p><p>I painted the Cretan tunics black since I have seen depictions of them in black, plus it gives them a distinctive look. When trying to decide whether to leave their shields as plain bronze or to paint a design, I looked at the terrific Ancient Battles website by Jeff Jonas. There is an article on Cretan shield designs, which heavily inspired the designs I painted. You can find it and many other good articles on wargaming the Hellenistic period at:</p><p><a href="https://ancientbattles.com/index_01_AncientBattles.html" target="_blank">Ancient Battles</a><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijgkIIbNyfF4G9rTKJIkos6BSMQ6U-Ou4qZyKNz7X5x3DDozEptAiuW1TaVN-jgP_4BwAzHeHrd0ckMa7_0lFcX6kSjW4U7smgbnhv5RNiuZOtbZDkuEbJRdNF_loddAIFV-r3PoyEp88/s1502/IMG_6228.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="604" data-original-width="1502" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijgkIIbNyfF4G9rTKJIkos6BSMQ6U-Ou4qZyKNz7X5x3DDozEptAiuW1TaVN-jgP_4BwAzHeHrd0ckMa7_0lFcX6kSjW4U7smgbnhv5RNiuZOtbZDkuEbJRdNF_loddAIFV-r3PoyEp88/w640-h258/IMG_6228.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP5S5mAef2J0RhxMHGEOiuFjHExYk3IeCoHSVyKctFEfw9tBVZzv18xZ0aOsWHIIREt601CBEhcs7rvysmpU8KUBE7ol1Dv1LmuWIcbO51wDrad0PTqwdiTW0PDa3AR3_LUQQe2g1DCrk/s1413/IMG_6230.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="598" data-original-width="1413" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP5S5mAef2J0RhxMHGEOiuFjHExYk3IeCoHSVyKctFEfw9tBVZzv18xZ0aOsWHIIREt601CBEhcs7rvysmpU8KUBE7ol1Dv1LmuWIcbO51wDrad0PTqwdiTW0PDa3AR3_LUQQe2g1DCrk/w640-h270/IMG_6230.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKBV_JEZmpjlVYWv5Cn4a8F4Oe0JNdEjNE5wV3uM-MfPIGca8MVfZPFqQTMLF-OX0S_GwpklarR6OKWH7ikHZG6vqZmMFOD0-cmbm7vhsgtEoanC3RtV3mCQxB8PL6z1pozIJ9scTgvYo/s1511/IMG_6232.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="583" data-original-width="1511" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKBV_JEZmpjlVYWv5Cn4a8F4Oe0JNdEjNE5wV3uM-MfPIGca8MVfZPFqQTMLF-OX0S_GwpklarR6OKWH7ikHZG6vqZmMFOD0-cmbm7vhsgtEoanC3RtV3mCQxB8PL6z1pozIJ9scTgvYo/w640-h246/IMG_6232.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjininRuiS0G14VCe1ibhPPYeiS9ehHxcHjq9uE3ebcoRG50WFWIN1alqfujQA5DnG137Edhw-INJEebjK8QbUu4rz84ZjnFWiFvgGtbwUE-adwx5A9nOaa7gKXd5LiSd_y0837gOoHngc/s1496/IMG_6233.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="620" data-original-width="1496" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjininRuiS0G14VCe1ibhPPYeiS9ehHxcHjq9uE3ebcoRG50WFWIN1alqfujQA5DnG137Edhw-INJEebjK8QbUu4rz84ZjnFWiFvgGtbwUE-adwx5A9nOaa7gKXd5LiSd_y0837gOoHngc/w640-h266/IMG_6233.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC2zVQRlm9NLFerucp8XZQm0NoI_plGCR9hsElJZmzZx4qDDX31DGjPBePIygjj0Vtku826Ic62qqGHEIAZ2eGni2LpSuTNTJDQ4hS2Tr35_Xg87V5fdeOKYj2Z-eXko3OKr_EXyJLFVI/s1483/IMG_6235.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="493" data-original-width="1483" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC2zVQRlm9NLFerucp8XZQm0NoI_plGCR9hsElJZmzZx4qDDX31DGjPBePIygjj0Vtku826Ic62qqGHEIAZ2eGni2LpSuTNTJDQ4hS2Tr35_Xg87V5fdeOKYj2Z-eXko3OKr_EXyJLFVI/w640-h212/IMG_6235.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>For the Baelaric slingers I used the same color scheme as my Iberians; tunics in various shades of off-white with red stripes on the borders.

They were my first Saga army that I painted back in the fall of 2012. There is a WIP post of them on this blog from December 5, 2012. Mike's excellent Saga podcast is available several places online including at:</p><p>https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/saga-ohio/id1542249938</p><p>https://anchor.fm/sagaohio</p><p class="MsoNormal">I am
a long-time player of Scottish armies.
The first ancients/medieval armies I painted were 15mm Medieval Scots and
English way back in 1989-90 for the WRG 7<sup>th</sup> edition rules. I have a deep interest in Scottish
history. When I started with Saga they
were a natural choice for me. As a bonus none of the local players had them.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">I
view my Scots as representing the period from the mid 9<sup>th</sup> century to
the late 11<sup>th</sup> century. The
earlier part of the period is when the Viking raids are in full swing; the
Vikings defeated a combined army of Picts and Scots in 839 and killed both King
Eoganan of the Picts and King Aed of the Dal Riata Scots. That accelerated the process which led to the eventual combination of
the two kingdoms of Dal Riata and the Picts around 850 into what was first
called Alba and later Scotland. The end
of that period corresponds to the Norman Conquest, which is the latest army in
the Saga Viking Age book . So while the
army list is called Scots, I see it as consisting of a mix of Dal Riata Scots
and Picts in various stages of integration and gaelicisation between 850 and 1100. I like to play my warlord as King Constantine
II, who ruled from 900-943 AD, fought both the Vikings and Saxons, and took part in the battle of Brunanburh in 937.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">When
I was looking for miniatures for the Scots I chose the range from
Crusader. I am a big fan of their miniatures and also use them in my Viking and Iberian armies. They are consistently well-sculpted and for the Scots their appearance fit the time period I wanted to
represent. I wanted to have a clear
visual difference between the hearthguard and warriors for both aesthetic and
gameplay reasons. Crusader offered
spearmen in mail so I used those for the hearthguard, and used the unarmored
spearmen for the warriors. Crusader also
has a command pack of 2 leaders, a standardbearer and a musician and I got
those as well for some extra varierty.
For my warlord I used the Crusader Scots Chieftain pack, which has a
mounted and foot version of the same miniature.
Once I bought those initial miniatures and started painting the army, I
added some Gripping Beast levies and a unit each of Gripping Beast hearthguard
and warriors for a total of 8 points for Saga.<o:p></o:p></p><p>When I painted these in 2012 I was primarily painting 15mm miniatures, with some 28mm for Doctor Who games mixed in. The Scots were the first 28mm
historicals I painted and since then I have gradually shifted to painting almost
exclusively 28mm miniatures. I added decoration to many of the tunics and cloaks, mainly stripes, though I avoided the full Scottish plaid as that is a later historical development. I sprinkled in a few woad tattoos to reflect a lingering Pictish influence. Most of the shields are transfers from Little Big Men Studios though a few are hand-painted. While they are not my best-painted Saga army I do think they still look good and they are my favorite army.</p><p>Warlord (Crusader): A set of the same leader mounted and on foot. I've never used the mounted version in a game. My Scots are all on foot in order to use their long spears to full effect.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7N1FJijne2PvBRtJaIdqdkWAWrQGTvWkojgRkUlpaXTEB4Y2gm6Zg8VRStmDyFOgm64snYFZ3wYYCq8b91qH_scka76AXbHsAWla4irrbPoqFxHXtxagDDSFQ7jzz144Dp2Wmg1ek_2w/s1138/IMG_6147.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="827" data-original-width="1138" height="291" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7N1FJijne2PvBRtJaIdqdkWAWrQGTvWkojgRkUlpaXTEB4Y2gm6Zg8VRStmDyFOgm64snYFZ3wYYCq8b91qH_scka76AXbHsAWla4irrbPoqFxHXtxagDDSFQ7jzz144Dp2Wmg1ek_2w/w400-h291/IMG_6147.JPEG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5MGybgICw5xZSoldYZ_fbrOl3d17ERr13dxPmegqJeJc1ZzMZ7E5fmzYPazE61i2x4Ads8cWdYmmorqT6ASJVVgltsr881FKXR44SIz5J_1UBFzUqiLPf8okF9dl47PMGcs_djjLUvWQ/s871/IMG_6149.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="786" data-original-width="871" height="361" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5MGybgICw5xZSoldYZ_fbrOl3d17ERr13dxPmegqJeJc1ZzMZ7E5fmzYPazE61i2x4Ads8cWdYmmorqT6ASJVVgltsr881FKXR44SIz5J_1UBFzUqiLPf8okF9dl47PMGcs_djjLUvWQ/w400-h361/IMG_6149.JPEG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p>Thanes (Hearthguard by Crusader): Four spearmen in mail and helmet with very long spears.

No matter which I chose I would have to start from scratch. Although I have a large collection of 15mm ancients, I didn't have any in 28mm. Going by historical interest my first choice was the Epirotes led by Pyrhhus. However I had some doubts about the viability of the army due to its slow movement and battleboard abilities. I was also interested in the Iberians. Their battleboard interested me with the Guerilla mechanic and I do not have another Saga army that relies on maneuver abilities and the use of terrain. They also have some nice combat abilities I explored the miniature options for both over a couple weeks and eventually made the classic wargamer's choice: I bought miniatures for both!</p><p>After receiving everything for both armies from Caliver and Aventine I decided to paint the Iberians first. I had worked out that I could build most of the army with one pack of Victrix Armoured Iberian Warriors (40) and two packs of Victrix Iberian Cavalry (12 each). I supplemented them with two command packs from Crusader: Spanish Caetrati Command and Lusitanian Warrior Command (4 each). Crusader are one of my favorite companies for Saga miniatures and have a wide range of offerings.</p><p>This was my first time building an entire army out of plastics. After some experimentation with the first groups of infantry and cavalry, I found the assembly process fairly easy. The main reservation I have about these figures is the fragility of the weapons. Several times during painting the first unit I broke javelins with only a small amount of pressure. They always broke at the hand and were easy to repair with plastic glue, but I consider it a real drawback compared to the metal figures I normally use. I have some doubts as to their long-term durability but I am happy with how they turned out and hope they last. I look forward to playing them when I have a chance.</p><p>I used a limited color palette for the Iberians. I have a 15mm Ancient Spanish army that I painted many years ago (also posted on this blog), and after looking at them and consulting my copy of Duncan Head's Armies of the Macedonian and Punic Wars (an invaluable resource), I had the basic scheme: tunics in various shades of off-white with red borders and a few blue borders. Some tribes wore black, so I would use that to add in some variety. I used a slightly darker skintone than I use for my Viking Age armies, reasoning that my troops would spend much of their time outside in the Mediterranean sun. </p><p>The first group I painted was a unit of 12 caetrati, skirmishers armed with javelins and the small caetra shield (levies in Saga terms). If I don't want to use them as levies, they could also pass for Lusitanian scutarii who historically used the caetra shield. Four of them are Crusader miniatures with Victrix shields substituted so I could use the LBMS transfers I had: in the first group the only one with a sword; in the second group the one pointing ahead, the standardbearer and the hornblower.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju8meMmGayzHwcbW3zOCjnyp9ZeQrHgQUQrwS4OQW-eMoEKEFSCcOwaAGZb-PjL4DMKOo3BpEtuf3OVYS3CBZvdnnJoSzNeErRX7nGOKR76U3E9hC1wMzNpopu71zdZtbhCyG0muGIheM/s1500/IMG_5896.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="661" data-original-width="1500" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju8meMmGayzHwcbW3zOCjnyp9ZeQrHgQUQrwS4OQW-eMoEKEFSCcOwaAGZb-PjL4DMKOo3BpEtuf3OVYS3CBZvdnnJoSzNeErRX7nGOKR76U3E9hC1wMzNpopu71zdZtbhCyG0muGIheM/w640-h282/IMG_5896.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicHUA0W4wHwH-eiTtAlo8sBjlFnfa-2CGOBCbE1RsE7llOofwXeL8EVISRqJUSpNf09ezvMQzWKYpLxBUulhUDEAVgGiYd9U-2CcN4t6x4NjNV6Rq7nEOn8jufxlJEbzt4IW3EpmwVCgQ/s1443/IMG_5895.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /><img border="0" data-original-height="695" data-original-width="1443" height="308" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicHUA0W4wHwH-eiTtAlo8sBjlFnfa-2CGOBCbE1RsE7llOofwXeL8EVISRqJUSpNf09ezvMQzWKYpLxBUulhUDEAVgGiYd9U-2CcN4t6x4NjNV6Rq7nEOn8jufxlJEbzt4IW3EpmwVCgQ/w640-h308/IMG_5895.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ83xvQgqdBQ4lyJ5hJMuPihS4-Ixf6SlsAZqbWtUZA4kEfalt06KFAwbXdLcpsB9Joya7zGssXimolZ_O1v1LRpNQmsCqNg8HWZbgvzE4KONt_MPPiDJ1QhmaCToqPsnWGgHwo61tpUc/s1420/IMG_5898.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="359" data-original-width="1420" height="162" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ83xvQgqdBQ4lyJ5hJMuPihS4-Ixf6SlsAZqbWtUZA4kEfalt06KFAwbXdLcpsB9Joya7zGssXimolZ_O1v1LRpNQmsCqNg8HWZbgvzE4KONt_MPPiDJ1QhmaCToqPsnWGgHwo61tpUc/w640-h162/IMG_5898.JPEG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>I have three units of 8 scutarii armed with a mixture of spears and swords (warriors in Saga).

When initially looking at options for buying the army I didn't see any miniatures that fit what I wanted for a warlord, so I decided to wait until later. It turned out that I had enough foot to spare two for a warlord base. Looking at the Crusader command miniatures I already had, I chose one of the leaders and the standardbearer from the Lusitanian command pack. They both had scale or mail armor and greaves, while the leader had a cloak and the only beard in the entire army. I gave him a red tunic and a white cloak with a purple border, using some of the same colors as the rest of the army but with some added color.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNQocE_MY1fswguowdraDC5l2RwBduAzIV-pv0RaUSZfB_33f1ukxahmaC16hHTZjFt2ZSQPY-0R1H6GRjSFiEEWLH-c2jwmx3HjMznfvUsjbWP__reyOyKegzajulnNvLd3-mBcHdFIQ/s979/IMG_5942.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="979" data-original-width="662" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNQocE_MY1fswguowdraDC5l2RwBduAzIV-pv0RaUSZfB_33f1ukxahmaC16hHTZjFt2ZSQPY-0R1H6GRjSFiEEWLH-c2jwmx3HjMznfvUsjbWP__reyOyKegzajulnNvLd3-mBcHdFIQ/w270-h400/IMG_5942.JPEG" width="270" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8j4vFaLTxX76jde64MmVm9LHOwaOBLbAgpILsxR8rFtyLru1-KT9uNEaDYOJDX7eBWlKkX3z7yDlKGdcaVzplpctzLJxf7VUmss_2epNqougg5sZ3O9gbiLSd8JdHEfo2hRHeutmeIVk/s1078/IMG_5943.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1078" data-original-width="681" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8j4vFaLTxX76jde64MmVm9LHOwaOBLbAgpILsxR8rFtyLru1-KT9uNEaDYOJDX7eBWlKkX3z7yDlKGdcaVzplpctzLJxf7VUmss_2epNqougg5sZ3O9gbiLSd8JdHEfo2hRHeutmeIVk/w253-h400/IMG_5943.JPEG" width="253" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ClsUeE3BvXYiQobiwvKU_it0FnAgxxieNm5_rwKej2zD-W1lhcq4S9XqCWOmvCudoKZVuGUeORuhl-_R75rufrcAg-oIgKZ6tQcfJufLwfYp_B6IgDwgKYKHcUlEk2lBFl4SearAjpU/s1070/IMG_5944.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1070" data-original-width="763" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ClsUeE3BvXYiQobiwvKU_it0FnAgxxieNm5_rwKej2zD-W1lhcq4S9XqCWOmvCudoKZVuGUeORuhl-_R75rufrcAg-oIgKZ6tQcfJufLwfYp_B6IgDwgKYKHcUlEk2lBFl4SearAjpU/w285-h400/IMG_5944.JPEG" width="285" /></a></div><br /><p>For a mounted warlord I had fewer options. I only had the Victrix cavalry, but there were only three different bodies so I decided to attempt a conversion (one of my least favorite things to do). I cut off the torso of a plastic foot command pose and cut one of the riders in half. I glued the two parts together and was able to conceal the join. None of the cavalry heads looked distinctive enough to me, plus I had used at least one of each of them for the other cavalry. I ended up taking a head from the Macedonian phalangite set with side crests, removing the central Thracian peak from the helmet, and gluing on a central crest from the Iberian set. Painting him in a mix of red and purple tones also makes him stand out from the rest of the army. My general must have gotten his elaborate helmet as a gift from a Carthaginian envoy seeking an alliance. Buying the Epirotes at the same time was obviously the right choice!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJhK9U6gRsWQ2N8nZtPiflLyYWYwnbuvXb9Ve_Pr04IC1LsYM2cGGG5aLwtC6RzHkXyCAl7HeeKQeWhrCss3Oo2ypDAwvYBmuRr-e9_f1U3byC8RABG1dTNXOTGUL2rUsqIvjRT9BEDgY/s873/IMG_5996.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="873" data-original-width="453" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJhK9U6gRsWQ2N8nZtPiflLyYWYwnbuvXb9Ve_Pr04IC1LsYM2cGGG5aLwtC6RzHkXyCAl7HeeKQeWhrCss3Oo2ypDAwvYBmuRr-e9_f1U3byC8RABG1dTNXOTGUL2rUsqIvjRT9BEDgY/w208-h400/IMG_5996.JPEG" width="208" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3br5h0GuvnVGxEHrIjaage9H5_xs7icVB1L7V3LF-5SvsEcFGwG6m7m7KfrrzSHjv4P0hpcvQnGLsS5ZOln5u3fPqT7P0e0IazsjtvtN0wbwo2293TzhFdBEebDGybznmk_S24lvBMIY/s1084/IMG_5997.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1084" data-original-width="1011" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3br5h0GuvnVGxEHrIjaage9H5_xs7icVB1L7V3LF-5SvsEcFGwG6m7m7KfrrzSHjv4P0hpcvQnGLsS5ZOln5u3fPqT7P0e0IazsjtvtN0wbwo2293TzhFdBEebDGybznmk_S24lvBMIY/w373-h400/IMG_5997.JPEG" width="373" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkziKgcQEGyoRv0DpklNdNYlcnTXmngDGHjlns0IEirVX1Abp9QcN6jFN_c-KMpzjeSOO9L8vPMgXNcDKb9C5Z_lxJKJVhgh0bSSyrO7hM0qt6tMzOEz3OEs74wm2nu_B9q0RnQh1Z_Ps/s1258/IMG_6001.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1258" data-original-width="978" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkziKgcQEGyoRv0DpklNdNYlcnTXmngDGHjlns0IEirVX1Abp9QcN6jFN_c-KMpzjeSOO9L8vPMgXNcDKb9C5Z_lxJKJVhgh0bSSyrO7hM0qt6tMzOEz3OEs74wm2nu_B9q0RnQh1Z_Ps/w311-h400/IMG_6001.JPEG" width="311" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtrt-Q04_73vWw8cC0Om5QtHRYSaLBdZMGAHYMqNOIMXYE5h2yEZhTzV5hynNurr3n7eE7xpq2T_TNCq8lOYtLCrgdIQmkSKcbtfHK9eKcKiNVXnfSAhbGefRBH9elG6AUB8CLhhbd-go/s1084/IMG_5998.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1084" data-original-width="613" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtrt-Q04_73vWw8cC0Om5QtHRYSaLBdZMGAHYMqNOIMXYE5h2yEZhTzV5hynNurr3n7eE7xpq2T_TNCq8lOYtLCrgdIQmkSKcbtfHK9eKcKiNVXnfSAhbGefRBH9elG6AUB8CLhhbd-go/w226-h400/IMG_5998.JPEG" width="226" /></a></div></div><br /><p>The entire army drawn up for battle: Caetrati in a screen out front with scutarii behind, cavalry to each flank and the noble cavalry in reserve.
