10mm Renaissance/Late Medievel Spanish commission for MeG Italian Wars

Army is finished! Hurrah! Loved doing these.

Mounted Generals including King








The last 5 bases of Jinettes (one was already done in that last batch).










Spanish camp






Jinettes, two units and 1 extra stand that starts the third unit!


These caused my Tudors a LOT of agro yesterday!


There's just something about them though!


One unit to show off...


Rear view




Heavy knights




Thunderous hooves


They really look the buisness


I had enough figures left over to make these, the Spanish switched to mixed pike and firearm units early, and these are useful markers to show that.


Yes, I overdid it on the flags again!




Two foot generals






Well done if you spotted the Pendraken Tudor range Earl of Suffolk here


They work well

 
Two mounted shooting units finished. 
Mounted crossbows.


5 on the front rank, four in the back so they can switch between 'loose' and 'skirmish' formations.








Mounted handgunners


Top view, these are also flexibles








 
Five more units for Lee's army.
Arquibusiers






Flank close up


Rear view


Crossbow unit




Quite liking these




Rear view


Big guns!


Grand battery


Duck!


Busy battery




Handgun skirmishers




Side view


Back view


Skirmishing crossbows




Top view




Five units looking mighty


 Sword and Buckler men (not entirely accurate for the period, but Lee loved the figures, and I enjoyed painting them).
Unit 1
Looking quite hard face on!




'Flexible' units, so less figures in the rear ranks so they can be swapped for the soliod front ranks when in terrain.


The all important trouser shot!


Second unit in loose formation


Love the effect they have


TROUSERS!


Both units deployed


Top view

 

 Takes the army up to 4 units now... Feels like a lot more with the double sized pike keils.

Lee's Spanish pikes below.

Next 120 figures are done.

Spanish pikes


Side view


Only 20 flags this time


Top view, armour is later black armour for Spanish so they can be used in Renaissance gaming too.


There are another 15 painted, just need to decide on their basing

Rear ranks, just becuase I like the figures

 

Landscherneckt mercanary pike Keil





80 figures, 40 flags!


Rear view

That takes me to 4749 figures for the year, of which 2382 were for myself. Nice way to finish.

    1. I researched the flags that would have been used historically, cut and pasted them into word. Nothing more difficult than that.

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?

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...
