28mm Queen's Envoy Mounted set and Kerr Clan from Border Wars

WOW! These have been sitting in the pile of shame for an age. I was looking for the hounds for another project, and it seemed like a waste not to do all the figures that went with them. Lords know how long ago Iain at Flags of War actuallty ran the Kickstarter for these, but here they are!

More Border Wars kit
The Kerrs, a local Priest, and Hound Master.


Approximation of the Kerr tartan (yes, I know it wasn't formalised in this period, but it was a bit of fun).


Ready for action


Off to fight, cause trouble, and generally be a nusance!


The Hound Master also comes with a mounted version.


Giving him a long range charge ability


Why the disparity in basing styles? Because the hounds will get used for another rules set more often I suspect!


FETCH! (I hae gone back and patched the hat!)


And on the opposition, The Queen's enoy and collegues now have mounts.


To counter the local priest, they have persusaded 'The Baby Eating Bishop of Baths & Wells' (they have got the original artist's sketches, as security). The red hot poker was great fun to paint!


Lord Percy Percy looks like he's a bit worse for wear in this one!


If you excuse us...


A fine bunch


And nice to get the Salmon Pink out again for Percy
 
 You may refer to me as: Your Grace, Duke Speedy of Leighton.
Another printed gift from a friend, catching up to the rest of the party as he was 'BUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSY! WOOF!"


Is this a canoe..


Let's do it!


Woof!

 

 Border Wars Queen's Envoy and associates, you may recognise them.


Yes, I did use the Salmon Pink from Pendraken for Percy...


Send the lackies first


Lord Blackadder the Second!

Black Powder 1870 Stats and Modifications

1870 Franco-Prussian Conflict in Black Powder Hi all, If you are reading this, it's because. like us, you are Black Powder fans and want to know how we manage the Franco-Prussian War. Anything below is by no way official, just the house rules we have developed over the last few years of playing. A few thoughts first: Fighting in the period is best described as hard fought assaults by Prussians, supported by superior artillery against superior but very strong defensive French lines. All ranges and movements are in cm scale, just to be awkward! All my forces are modelled on 3” square bases, apart from divisional commanders, skirmishers and artillery which have a frontage of 1½” and Corp commanders who are on a 2” base. Feel free to ignore that. My units are regiments of infantry,   brigades of cavalry and skirmish squadrons of cav. Artillery is either battalion as one gun, or a battery of two guns on a base, horse artillery have limbers attached. Army composition...

Mortal Gods

Footsore recently released this rather fun game, based around 28mm skirmish fighting in ancient Greece. Tried it at Campaign, then got a set for my birthday from Manny and Rob at Boards and Swords . This month's batch of Mortal God's figures, some new, some old. Athenians - bought when the rules first came out in 2019, just after doing evveryone elses's stuff, I had lost the mojo to do these, plus my Thespians have been serving me well. But, with the great shed tidy, and continued popularity amoung my friends, it was about time. The Athenian set had lead heroes, and plastic hoplites/peripoli, but I decide that I can use any of my other hopilites to fill in for the citizens, and that actaully, I sould get on with the lead. Athenian Marine hoplites - regular state troops, as opposed to my irregular Thespians Top down With Athenian shields from the boxed set Ready to go Regular, armoured, marine archers "Hit that one!" "No, that one!...
