10mm Pendraken figures as Jewish Revolt army

Another archer unit, must be something about Xmas time makes me want to paint rebels!
These are on individual bases and more sombre in tone as they will be fanatics.


Looking at my date stamp on the last post here, it does mean they have been clogging up my painting desk for over a year!


Their job, get into bad terrain, hold it and snipe.


Odds of survival, slim to non-existent!


They blend in quite well really.

Here are the first units of my Jewish Revolt forces. All 10mm, all Pendraken.

Why? Because it's something completely different to my usual heavy infantry choices. It was meant to be used for a weekend a few weekends ago, but other people's work needed doing.
More will appear later (when other projects let me).

Starting with non-fanatic warriors


Two units, some using captured Roman equipment

Quite a mob


Archers (mix of ranges)


Shoot in all directions? I wish


What better way of celebrating Xmas?


Slingers - quite a lot of them


I don't normally do my skirmish units this big, but this time is suits the army.


It's just under a quarter of the army so far.

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...
