What rules will you be using for skirmish games ?

No idea but probably a LotR mod.

More penny based troops in the form of the Miyoshi and Murakami clans  :)





The Miyoshi clan was pretty much wiped out in the latter half of the 16thcen and of course I only found this out after I started on them  ::) lol

And below we have a picture of what I have to re-base...



Not the best picture but it gives an idea  :)

Wow! What a brilliant collection and nice painting!

I always had a soft spot for this period as well, but I've only got it in 15 mm... that should keep me in the clear.  lol

Thanks chaps  :)

Need bank visit for lots of pennies  ;D

Started work on a smaller bune that will eventually be another kit. Same principle as the other one, silly boxy thing on a rudimentary hull with a naff square sail  lol




Just tarting up an older samurai unit which will get posted very soon  :)

Out of curiosity... do you still do a 1:1 scale but with massive armies? Or is it a more "big battle" style ratio of models:troops?

Amazing collection, by the way!

It's more of a large skirmish but generally with a figure ratio of 1:1 or 1:2 or something like that. They were originally based for WAB and that could be any ratio you want, then I moved onto Hail Caeser but never played  lol now it's for skirmish but with the option of ranking up using regular sabot trays (more on which later).

Where's my balloon?

You know where...  ;D
