Mortal Gods - a three sided scrap

Polykratos ran his hands through the long grass, a shadow loomed over him, he shook himself awake. "Alright porcupine?" Tychon the archer offered a hand to the Locargos, "Enjoying your nap?" Leandros had an arm in a sling, never a good sign, and Polykratos's ears rang. "Where are the Persians?" "Pursuing the other Greeks, out boys holding the hill was enough of a discouragement. Plus, I think they used up their arrows on you two!" The archer whistled a jaunty tune as he walked away. "Still not in Hades, Polykratos?" "Still not in Hades, Tychon!" he grinned, slapping his second on teh back, and regretting it as his hand contacted armour. Mark and I were joined by David at teh Leighton Buzzard Wargames Club for a three sided game of Mortal Gods. David had been threatening to get his stuff on table for a while, and we decided now was the time. Each of us took 400 points. My Thespians, Mark with Persians, and David with generi...

10mm Napoleonic commission

 A few 10mm Napoleonis for a client. Mostly MM, but a few Pendraken Austrian infantry mixed in. The owner will do their own basing later. Austrian infantry Top view Side on Back view Austrian ADCs and generals Back view Empress dragoons and Lancers de Berg Charge! Front on Back view French ADCs and Generals, including Lasalle.

Xenos Rampant - Undead vs Space Orcs

After a flurry of 'What shall we play', Martyn and I plumped for Xenos Rampant. I hadn't played for a year, he for two, but always an utterly enjoyable game. We rolled Mission Juliet - Supply run. Six caches of goodies lay around the table, mission, collect the goodies, or kill your opponent. We deployed across a blighted cityscape. My main stress was what list to use? It had been so long since I had dived into the box that I had forgotten which forces I owned. I had an undead list written, so I went with that. (Although there was a lot I could have used, hmmm, native infantry) My list Nemesis - Greater Xenomorph, razor sharp blades, cunning, xenomorph shooting, armour piercing (11AP) 3 x Zombie hordes with undead, mob, contagious (3AP each) - Yes, one is a mob of penguins, the local necromancer got bored! 1 x mages conclave Heavy infantry, large unit, unreliable, alpha level psychic (4AP) (Helping hand) Martyn's beautiful orcs Berserker infantry (very heavy armou...
