A few new additions for a big Italian Wars campaign game.
« on: June 06, 2017, 09:23:38 AM »
Later this year I'm putting on a weekend long Italian Wars game for The League of Gentlemen Wargamers. The game will take the form of a campaign where the table is the map.

The table will be a stylised map of Italy which, without walking spaces between the tables will be about 18 feet wide at its widest and about 30 feet long. It will cover Milan to Venice, the Alps to Naples.

I'm going to be providing most of the 2000+ figures for the game so I thought it might be a good idea to get painting a few more so that the ten to twelve players (playing for Spain, France, Papal State, Venice, Milan, Florence, etc.) will have something to push about the place.

Incredible work - "800 pikemen" - OK, that's impressive  :)

Lovely to see, thank you for the continued inspiration.

Superb additions, strangely enough I was wondering what you were up to at the moment the other day.

Looking brilliant! That is going to be an absolutely spectacular game.

Make sure to post up some pics here once the smoke clears.
