Mortiem et Gloriam Mitanni vs Median Empire

Another Warfare warm-up, with Paul trying out a different list variant from the later book, and my glorious Mitanni getting in vital practise before Warfare.
Median Empire, used by a mathematician, there must be some mean-mode-median-range jokes here...
Nope, I got nothing.

There are three units of infantry, off right----->
Centre, what centre?

Early skirmishing, lots of dice, not many hits! That's the five right hand dice...

That's the two left hand dice vs Paul's superior cavalry (White+ means S wounds, so nasty)

On the right, that's an awful lot of infantry, which I wanted to get in on, but there is a lot of shooting stuff in the way. Paul's skilled shooters erm... missed!

Paul pointing out the error of my ways as he concentrates three units on my 4 of superiors.

Paul starting to envelop my flanks.

I lost a base!  I killed a unit of Paul's horse in melee and then where to go next?  (2-0)

Trying to catch smoke on the right, I move my foot up to support, but this is my brittle side.

It's an utter mess over on this side, as Paul catches my superiors around the back. My averages struggle to deal with the other flank.
Told you they were brittle,  I start hemorrhaging bases to charge reaction shooting.
Thing joins the game!  I desperately try to work out how to gain points as Paul starts to tear me apart! Sure I had a unit here a second ago (2-2)

Despite winning, Paul breaks off, but it doesn't quite work out as one of his units breaks on the break-off due to Kill-A-Base test. (4-2)

Too little too late, as 4 units collapse in a turn and my army disintegrates. (4-15 to Paul)

Cracking game, and a lot of Paul's units were brittle, but he had SOOOOO many units that I could not get in on all of them.
These maths jokes just aren't coming are they!

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.   Nemisis the Warlock - Khaos; Deadlock; the Warlock; the Shape of Things to Come; the Lord of the Flies; Holder of the Sword Sinister; The Death Bringer One of my all-time favourite 2000AD characters (2000AD is a British sci-fi based comic for those not from the fair shores of Blighty). "Creedo!" I got hold of two of these on Evil Bay, one uncommon (yellow base rim), one rare (red base rim), so I trashed the rare one (and kept the base elsewhere). This is a simple conversion of a heroclix figure,  Excessus, Sword Sinister replaced, base ripped off and new one sculpted, undercoated figure,  completly  repainted, flying stem attached. Sometimes, you just need a seri

6mm Pony Wars commission for a friend.

Friend asked me to do his Pony Wars kit now that Baccus have taken it over. Started off with the two bags of Native mounted figures. Over 200 of them! 72 in the first three bases of 24s. Top view, had fun posing one stand at least The rules suggest bases of up to 50! I went for breakable multiples such as 24. Back view Not the crisp view I was after, but you get the idea. 40 in five lots of 8s Allowing for flexibility. Scoot 48 in fours Top view Threes, ten bases making another thirty. Moving quickly. Top down Twos, twelve of - standard size of US troopers, useful as small change for locals! From above Back view Damn, missed one! And one broke off his base, so he's Hollywood loss (insert Wilheim scream here). Top view 33 ones (two were joined together and counted in the twos. Cantabrian anyone? Spinning maelstrom of Souix! Almost a whole A4 of riders.
