Papal forces of the Borgias - updated 09/08/2018

Grham has based these up, quick phone grabs, but gives you an idea of the forces en masse!





Extras for the Papacy (see below)
This week's batch

The Pope has a gun!


Sword and Buckler men, only one sculpt, but I really like them.

These came out really well.

A mix of Pendraken Dark Age civilians (left) and Kallista wagoneers (right)


Pendraken mounted Dark Age Civilians, given a Renaissance makeover (including Cardinal Biggles)


More re-purposed Dark Age civilians, do love the way these came out!


PIGS


Goats


Cows!


Dark Aged Civilian Ladies, re-purposed, and 'Light Cavalry'! The Ladies worked really well.




Well, it's back!
Graham asked for Papal Forces for his hero Caesar Borgia to add to this commission, and it's more red and yellow, not to be confused with the red and yellow of the Spanish, or the Gascons!

Borgia's bodyguard




The man himself (deliberately dark photo to allow Graham to enjoy it when he opens it)

Pikes


Halbardiers


Warwagon crew and musicians


Peasentry




And some 12mm Kallistar
Landschernects

Crew for various things (tried to get too close on these!




Horses for baggage


Artillery crew


Some army shots
I did fix the pike








Borgia himself sits next to the wagon.


It all fits in one A4 box!

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!

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...
