Roger's Five Hegemon Chinese in 15mm for Mortem et Gloriam.

What ho all!
Roger asked me to finish off his Chinese Five Hegemon army for Warfare (Chariot period theme). Roger basically rebuilt the ground floor (and drains)our house in 2020, so this was a small part of my eternal repayment.

Two units of heavy chariots - these are not 'regular' troops.

Big models

Charge!

Can you spot where I might have got bored painting chariots?

And another four

Back view - one with Swiss diplomatic plates.

Give me my burning spear...

Then two units of regular 'Guard' chariots

Horsepower!

Trundle!

Third unit of four,

Uniform details

Moving so fast they were blurred.

Bird's eye view

The rest of the army was a case of rebasing to match the new units, highlighting the flesh, and sorting out weapon and armour.

Roger's generals, liked these, just needed flesh and bronze.

Now just hope I don't meet them at the weekend!

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain. I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them Mutant Zombie by CP Models Or just a mutant? Nota nice looking chap That's not going to clear up anytime soon! Nasty rash there Puss, but no boots Thought Sharke needed some support, so when I ordered terrain from Alternative Armies, I added a certain Sergeant. He's a BIG unit! Thought it was only a few months back painted Sharke, but I checked back, 10th December 2022!

Soldiers of Napoleon - Imperial Guard vs Austrians.

Mark and I met up for a game at Leighton Buzzard Wargames Club. My Imperial Guard vs his Austrians, but he had taken an earlier list (1806), whereas mine was back to 1811. This time saw the first fielding of my new Young Guard. My plan was to adance the guard through the two villages, one brigade had deployed forwards in the centre to accomplish this; then swing in from the left with the Gauard Heay Cavalry brigade. Unfortunately, Mark had other ideas! He had deployed with his cavalry brigade screening forwards. Then it all really went his way. Soldiers of Napoleon has three things you can do on each card, an amount of units that can move, a rally state and special events. Sometimes, the cards fall absolutely how you want them to, sometimes, they don't. Turn one and Mark had been dealt two sets of 'At the quick' special event cards, allowing a march and then a manouver (or vice versa) for three units. Exactly the amount of cavalry units in his brigade! Combined with a ...
