Title: OGAM Olympians - gods, legends and mortals
Post by: Irregular Wars Nic on September 13, 2018, 05:36:40 PM
Now that I have a good selection of gods, legends and mortals finished, I figure it is about time that I showcase my OGAM Olympian forces. I'll start with the most recent addition, and try to add a photo or two every day or so.

First up is Hermes, god of travelers, merchants, shepherds and theives.

Awesome!  I look forward to the growing Pantheon. 

I read he is only a 28mm model.  Do the rules in OGAM specify that they need to be a certain size?  I do not recall?  Otherwise, he could be a cool legend instead of a god himself to act as a support?

No, there is no size requirement for god's in OGAM. So long as they are identifiable, the rule of cool applies. Do whatever floats your boat. :D

Well, carry-on then! I guess I was unduly influenced by the official range!

I just had a completely random thought.  Have you considered using these guys in conjunction with your 10mm Greeks?

No 10mm Greeks yet. Going to build those over winter in preparation for Men of Bronze.  ;)

My 6mm Hellenistic chaps haven't met these big lads before, although I suppose it's be possible for OGAM, or for the new Lord and Lands expansion, Pantheons.

She and Apollo are both from Crocodile Games Wargods of Olympus range. There was a KS for them a few years ago now. Not sure if they're in the shop yet.

So I think that's all my Olympians and their followers - OGAM in a box.

I am now working on a small Norse force, just because I've always wanted a few...  :D

Post by: Mason on October 02, 2018, 11:32:49 AM
That is a great force, Nic.
Nice brushwork and figure selection.
 :-* :-*

The fact that you have built a force that gives you plenty of options whilst filling all the classic troop types at the same time, whilst also fitting it all neatly in a box for both storage and transport is great.
Well done that man.
 :D


Of course, you have not finished yet as there is always 'something' that you want to add to an OGAM force.....
