Taurian Army for Warband - NOW WITH ADDED MINOTAORS!

Oh, the Wargames butterfly has flapped her wings!
As I  was painting cavalry for Clive's Renaissance Commission, these were sitting, needing painting, I decided to paint the horsey types at the same time..

Taurians are one of the more interesting ideas in Warband, a confederation of Minotaurs and Centaurs, wild and yet civilised in their own way. They are an expensive, heavy hitting and mobile force, but small in number compared to others. I've had the force a while, but not painted, until now!

So, the Centaurs:


Charge of the light brigade?

Centaur Knights - well, why wouldn't they strap on armour? The shield patterns are an abstract of mazes.


Centaur Warriors - a more classical view of the human-horse-hybrids.


Really like Phil's sculpts on these.

Centaur archers - think classic hunnic horse archer types, with better grooming!


Minotaurs are now finished!

 The Minotaurs - Three stands of warriors, a Shamen and a Chieftain.

Three stands of Warriors

 The Chieftain




The Shamen


Warriors with a hero


The whole Taurian Army, small in number, but very, very powerful in Warband!

Blizkeig Commander IV - Hasty Assault

Mark and Stephen took my British at 1750 points, with effectively the same lists as before, but with two turns of preprogrammed artillery and a turn of smoke to assault my 1100 points of Germans who were in dugouts and gunpits. I chose to defend the four hills near my baseline. I has three HMGs, three mortars, two command teams and six infantry platoons, with two PAK36s teams. PAK36s and mortars on the back hill, two infantry and an HMG on the front. Infantry and Mortars in the left hill as a flank guard British stalled, turn 1 they failed to reach the table, so it took them at least four turns to advance. Artillery had landed on the right-hand hill, and rear hill, but had failed to kill anything, even with two 8 gun batteries of 25lbers . My ambush was sprung out the thicket. British infantry advancing developed an unfortunate habit of getting hit by mortars and HMGs. The British in turn 6 cleared the central hill with armour, but needed to get at least three infantry stand...
