By Fire and Sword 15mm Renaissance Moscovite commission

 Manny's third By Fire and Sword army, this time Moscovites.

Finished off Manny's Muscovites (until he sends me more). Again, he will base them and add flags later.

Boyers - almost elite heavy armoured cavalry


Ten bases worth - Manny buys in bulk! They normally come in fours or sixes...


Suspect that's quite an expensive unit!


Thunderously so


Lots of red, coz they is posh


Boyer's sons


Mixed weaponry, and a spare figure


It's like he was meant to be there!

RETREAT!

As ever, he will add basing and flags later.
Massive batch of 15mm Muscovites for Manny. With the new job, it has taken me ages. Again, he will base and add flags.

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!...
