Zombie Tanks and Hordes.

Zombie Tanks

Zombie Hordes.

Some recently finished Tank and Horde bases for my zombie game,I am using AKULA's rules AR:SE which are all on two sides of an A4 piece of paper and fun and can be found on his blog which is listed on this page.My painting is in the style of I possibly could do better but I want to get them on the table or just finished before I might go off them.

The tank figures are from Helldorado(far left and right) and the middle figure is from Four A Miniatures who do some nice figures,the horde bases are all studio miniatures which are amazing figures,now the horde bases from other people can be a lot bigger and a lot more figures(just see AKULA's blog but I could not justify the cost and time and so went with this option.Hope you like them and any questions feel free to ask.

After Winters the most amazing character and person in the company,and this scene makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.I have looked for a book on him after reading Winter's biography "Biggest Brother" but as of yet  have found nothing sustansial except for little pieces here and there and this wikipedia bit on him.

100 Years War Game or I still have 7 inches left.

Our club met up on Saturday for a game but numbers were limited as only 4 people were available but we had a hundred years war scenario set up based on WAB with armies of chivalry thrown in house rules.Postie is the ringmaster and myself and smithy ended up as the french and richard the guy in the picture was the english and the speaker of the title phrase when he was double moving his heavy cavalry into a better position(does not matter how old you are but it brings out the giggles among friends especially when he responded to our heckling with the phrase "well enough to please").
                                                                               The game was started with 3000pts each and deploying your units on a pre drawn map before the game and when we deployed the english had 5 units of longbowmen in the front ranks and our 1 unit of shortbows and crossbowmen went bye bye and the game went downhill quickly for me and smithy but it was enjoyable and it was a game. which we do not get to do as often as we once did or would like.
                                                         But the game finished earlier than normal and we spoke about my blog and Ray's blog another member of the club (Don't throw a 1) and writing about games and showing pictures but we decided then we need a name for the club and a debate has now begun on what we should be called(there were some of the usual less than nice comments,true but not nice) and we are thinking of the"The Devil's Reject's","The Old Dogs of War" or the " The Motley Crew".I have included some pictures taken by Postie but they are not great so he will be taken off camera duties in future,hope you enjoy.
