28mm Goblin army for Warhammer Old World

Those of you afraid of spiders, look away now!
Two Grenadier Goblin Wolf Riders from 1983 (well, that's what it says on the base), gifted to me by my neighbour Brian.


Ready to join my Goblin forces


There's a lot of character in these boys


Waits for back scabbard comments...  :-w

 
Night Goblin contingent of the army (or part of)
My phone camera appears to be knackered, so all shots now are blurred!!
Here's the best of the bunch...
Big Jason, the general
I did not paint him, just rebased him.




12 extra wolf riders, 4 I painted, a couple or repairs, the rest are rebased.




Matching someone else's style is always a challenge


Squig herders




It's a lot of teeth!


Stumpy Jason in 28mm, and the drummer thumpy Jason - These are Oathsworn, not GW




Embedded in their unit


Someone's in trouble!


I have no idea what it is, but it was fun to paint


Rebased Goblin blot chucker (I did not paint these, just based them to suit my army)





Spear armed goblins


And if you get too close, they unleash the fanatics


I painted three more to get them up to 25 figures this weekend.


Tried to make the spears as higgldy-piggldy as possible.


My view


Ready to go


Characters in the unit, including Squeaky Jason, a refugee in the ranks.


Goblin archers


Normally deployed two deep, ten wide.


Off they go


Twangy


Weird Jason the mage, and Not-Quite-As-Big Jason, the army standard bearer.


Both ready to face the world.


 
GW Spider riders for my Goblin army.


Based to go with my existing Frostgrave gobbos


There's at least another units worth in the box I bought.


Gribbly!


Not sure 16 is enough in one unit

Black Powder 1870 Stats and Modifications

1870 Franco-Prussian Conflict in Black Powder Hi all, If you are reading this, it's because. like us, you are Black Powder fans and want to know how we manage the Franco-Prussian War. Anything below is by no way official, just the house rules we have developed over the last few years of playing. A few thoughts first: Fighting in the period is best described as hard fought assaults by Prussians, supported by superior artillery against superior but very strong defensive French lines. All ranges and movements are in cm scale, just to be awkward! All my forces are modelled on 3” square bases, apart from divisional commanders, skirmishers and artillery which have a frontage of 1½” and Corp commanders who are on a 2” base. Feel free to ignore that. My units are regiments of infantry,   brigades of cavalry and skirmish squadrons of cav. Artillery is either battalion as one gun, or a battery of two guns on a base, horse artillery have limbers attached. Army composition...

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   Here comes the couragous WWI fighter ace in his Sopwith Camel. Hunting The Red Baron on the Dawn Patrol. Bit bigger than 25mm scale, but he will provide top cover for my Kindred WWI stuff. Yes, you have seen the flight stand before on my epic stuff. He's going so fast, the camera can't focus! "Curse you Red Baron!"   Two more Highlanders from the 80s, thanks to Brian up the road. Armed with two bottles or a sword, who is harder? More plaid Well hard! Top view   A chaos warrior It was free, and I've given it to a mate who runs a chaos armym=, hence th elack of basing as he will do it to his own style. Big chopp...
