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

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!

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 ...
