I have been playtesting my rules with a senario from the Too Fat Lardies stable. Here are some photos.
-
Great photos, I especially like the stretcher-bearers and the figure with the wounded guy over his shoulder - who makes those?
Also, which TooFatLardies ruleset and which scenario? I'm considering Mud & Blood for RCW/BoB skirmish myself.
-
Im glad you like the photos thanks. The Figures with stretcher and helping with sling are Wargames foundry, the figure carrying his pal is Scarab miniatures.
Too Fat Lardies do a rule set called "Triumph of the Will" which are for RCW/SCW at brigade level. I am not to keen on them my self, but I do like their rule set called "If The Lord Spares Us" which is for WW1 Palastine/Africa, once again at brigade level. I like the way this set works better, I just convert the troop types to the Russian Civil War. If you go over to http://pygmy-wars.50megs.com/scenarios/scenariopages.html
the senario is Guards at poltava.
-
TFL's "Triumph of the Will" is very early Lard and shows it. There is a supplement for Mud & Blood called "Triumphant Standards" which includes stats usable for RCW.

Very nice, thanks for sharing. :)
-
Great pictures!
-
Superb work!
-
Thanks for the nice comments. I think I have come to the end of my Russian Civil War collection and thats what prompted me to post the pictures. I have more than enough figures for games and on different fronts.
Thing is what shall I work on painting and collecting now?

Did the Artizan Cossak chap with the two pistols (you painted him with a green tunic) come with a miscast right hand and lugar? I got one yesterday, and it was miscast like that. Just wondering if its a general problem.
-
Amazing paintjob 8)
-
I didnt know it was a miss cast! I thought it was an extended cartrage thingy and the barrell had come off the gun. Shows what I know about guns. I Got the figure for a pulp campaign I was planning and I gave him a command in the game.
-
Gorgeous figs, buddy. Great job.

Its still a nice fig even if there is a (possible) problem with the mold. I sent Artizan/North Star an email on the matter over a week ago but got no reply :( I'll just have to effect repairs myself.
Just so you know, I'll be totaly stealing your colour scheme for this guy. Very cool!

RS,
I like the Cossack figure with the two pistols. The broomhandle is a fun shoot, but I couldn't hit a barn from the inside with it.
-
Fantastic :-*
Really great stuff you have there! More please :D
-
BTW, RS, whose bldgs were you using? Pegasus?
-
The building are Pegasus. Sold as 1/72 but the fit 28mm as far as I see. They also sell a pre painted Ukranian house but I have not seen that one and don't know how it is size wise.

Wow, those absolutely fit with 28mm ... that's a great tip. Now, I wish I could find some similarly affordable buildings to fit English villages for VBCW.
Great tip, Red.

Cracking, cracking, cracking! :-*
Who makes the old guy standard bearer (the one with the beard)
-
The old man with the flag is from the Old Glory ww1 Russian command pack. I am thinking of replacing the OldGlory figures with the figures that have been proposed by ts on this forum when or if I I can get hold of them in the UK.
