Next level historical wargaming nerdiness indeed! That is a very fun way to enhance the game play.

Lovely work Kayote  :-*

So, I see from left to right; the West Wind "Death of Arthur" vignette with a skinhead head swap on Arthur, A dead Wargames Foundry Viking and one more dead Wargames Foundry Viking being guarded by the one miniature from the old Arthur Salute vignette? Am I hot, warm or cold?  :D

The only thing you missed (and it is a very small thing) is that I did a head swap with Salute mini. The mini is the Mordred half of the original Arthur v Mordred SALUTE 2006 model. It originally had a roman face-mask helm, which I assume was inspired by the 1981 film Excalibur. The replacement head is from Victrix's Late Roman Armored Infantry kit.



BTW, the Arthur half of the SALUTE vignette is my Roman Warlord on foot.




Also, I prefer to think of the Vikings as Goths and that the kneeling Roman isn't protecting the fallen Goth, he is protecting himself from Goth archers, who are very unhappy with him for breaking his spear in the fallen Goth warrior's gut.  ;)

Ah ha! There's always something :)

My Salute 2006 model has long disappeared into conversions that I cannot even remember! which probably means they didn't/haven't been painted yet!  :o

Perhaps 2024 would be a good year to rectify that?  ;D

Maybe..... though who knows. lots of choices and I like to minimise the number of projects I have to contend with in one go.

Apologies for the slight post hijack Koyote.

These two fellas are AoI Roman Challengers for the Old Feud scenario from the Book of Battles. The model on the left represents the "non-fighty" archetypes (e.g., Counsellor and Traitor) and the model on the right represents the "fighty" archetypes (e.g., Brute and Soldier).
