Argonor:
As if I did not have sufficient projects to last me several lifetimes over, I recently acquired OGAM, and I imagine that I am going to spend many hours playing this unit-driven incarnation of the SoBaH system.
I can see myself play large battles with or without the presence of deities, and until a large army can be fielded, the system will serve me as a bridge between Blood Eagle warbands and SAGA/Dragon Rampant.
SO, where to begin?
I happen to have a bunch of WGF Caesarean Romans, so I am going to make a Jupiter (Zeus) warband based on the Greek Pantheon.
My starting warband will be:
Deity:
Jupiter
Legends:
Centurion
Harpy
Mortals:
8 Legionaires
6 Veteran Legionaires
4 Satyrs
For Satyrs, I am going to use some old GW Chaos Beastmen of which I purchased a bunch some months ago, along with some plastic Bretonnians I am going to use for Dragon Rampant.
most of the Beastmen needs stripping, though, so I applied science in the form of my ultrasonic cleaning device:
This is what one of the guys looked like after a couple of treatments, followed by using first a soft acrylic, then a brass 'leather brush':
I am also going to make a Lizardman warband, using the Slann as the Deity, for which I shall construct profiles from the open points system.
I recently came across this painted army at a VERY low price (about £60), and although I intended it for God of Battles, it can easily be turned into other purposes as well (and should be, according to the maxim I do all my hobby projects by).
Argonor:
Can't restrain myself lol
Bought these NIB second hand:

Argonor, can You tell me what is the content of spartan box? There is no clear information on warlord website, i just found that they offer three different hoplite sprues -standard with 8 bodies, spartan upgrade with two bodies and pilos heads, and command sprue with musician and commander. I'm actually curious what is the content of their third box: classical greek phalanx -i bought one and it had four standard sprues and four spartan upgrade -as if ot were spartans in the wrong box, or as if spartans and classical phalanx didn't differ

OGAM is a nice game :D I started with some norse and did the same thing using as OGAM Norse, Lion Rampant, SAGA and Blood Eagle viking Warband.
Just plan a little your purchases (with your mates as well) and you can get the max out of them.
