The Pointy Stick thread

[garyp]

Thanks folks. I'm slowly working my way through the box of goodies I got from LT.

Paul, they're based for Impetus, although I am going to base each of the major heroes as command figures with both a mounted and dismounted version (first up is Hector) so that I can use them for heroic skirmish games. Assuming I can find a sensible set of rules . . . .

Good stuff Gary, I'm sure there'll be 500 of them in no time at all, knowing you!

[MarshalNey]

Magnificient Mycenaean madness!

[Count Belisarius]

Indeed. Very nice wheely things!

Having got my head around the whole Hyborian thing after aquiring a few old books I've revised my pointy stick emphasis. I'm now putting together an Assyrianish looking army of King Senakot, which will have a mismash of Babylonian, Mycean and such Bliblical types painted in a classic style (read painted badly) and glossed. They'll hopefully be mostly classic figures too in true 25mm. They'll have a few occasional allies and sometimes foes too such as Greeks and whatnot.

Sounds splendid, Tim.

it does indeed sound tremendous.

Well it's been a long time so I have updated the board. Those armies that have been unheard of some time have been relegated to Dithering Limbo where the unworthy hang their heads in shame. Tim W now has 3 projects in-flight but is out-hoarded by LT with 4!

I think Bad King John and the Angevins need to go in dithering limbo as I seem to have developed a hang-up on doing horses and they’ve been overtaken by Romans and Germans.
Besides, if you want to list all my pointy sticks projects, we’re gonna need a bigger Kanban!

Looks like the Goat is Kanbanning the failures.
