Bullshott's VBCW - New Anglican units completed
« on: December 08, 2013, 05:17:18 PM »
With a game scheduled for just after Christmas, I've finally had the impetus to finish my schoolboy cadets. Some of you may have seen these under a different guise on the VSF board as a company for IHMN but they were originally purchased for VBCW, so it's nice to complete them as originally intended. Seen here as the Marlborough College Cadet Force, fighting for the Anglican League.



Vehicles soon to follow, after which there will be some militia, to go with the finished leaders:

Like those a lot. The guy in the mortarboard and standards are especially nice.

Splendid stuff, sir...!

Who will these stalwart lads be facing up against? Gentlemen or hoi-pollio?

These boys deserve to see as much table time as possible.

There will be at least 8 similarly sized forces in the game (which will based on the Swindon area). Forces will mainly be local militias of various political shades, plus an independent force of local gangsters/brigands out to line their pockets in the ensuing chaos.

They also do some jolly nice gents and poachers that are perfect for rural militias.

Good stuff Dave. I go with the concept that you get as much use out of your figures as possible so commend the IHMN/VBCW crossover! How are those wolfies coming on?

By the way, the rev's jacket is brilliant!

Wolves are completed. I just need to paint the human part of the company, who are number three priority on the painting list; after the vehicles for these boys (required for a game over the Christmas break) and some hunter types in tweed (also usable for bothe IHMN and VBCW).
