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!

Warhammer Old World - Goblins vs Empire, Batlle of The Hilly Hill

"Oi, where's the rest of the army?" Stumpy Jason turned round to the musician Thumpy Jason. "We's only playing 1000 points!" "Oh right. But why are there more Empire 'ooomans than us then?" the Goblin Wolfrider capatin pondered. Mort and I met up for a game of Warhammer Old World. I chose my Goblins, with only 1000 points. This led to me taking a unit of spears, with the army standard, a unit of archers, a spear chucker and some wolf riders. A level 1 mage, my general on a giant squig and Stumpy Jason rounded out my selection. I was tooled up with magic standards and characters, so half my points were tied up in characters. Mort had two units of mounted pistolliers, a spear unit, two detachments , one of handgunners, one of halbardiers, and a small unit of knights. Two characters were embedded in his spears and one pistolliers, and a mage strode forwards with the halbardiers. My wolves and general went left, archers, spears, bolt chucker and...

Mortal Gods - Three Sided scrap - finding the treasure.

Typhon woke up, his head was banging, and there would definitely be a new scar on hi sarm... "Nice to see you can take a knock too!" Leandros looked over at the archer. Polykratos sat on a nearby boulder, helmet and shield at his feet, sword bloodied, he was smiling at his two fellow fighters. "Nice to see you two sleepy heads. By the way, we won! Spartans and Etruscans all sent packing, treasures secrured!" Dave, David and I met up for a game of Mortal Gods. Mark was meant to be joining us, but he had to call off. This is only a quick report, as we were haing too much of a laugh! Six objecties were scattered across the field, which you have to find and hold until the end of turn 5. One would go live on a roll of '6', if an action was expended on it. The others then are empty. Three sides means two corners and an edge. 450 points each. I was nearest, Dave the other corned, David the opposite edge.My standard warband took to the field, with their eyes firmly...
