My first miniatures for a new project just arrived, and I struggled to decide upon the most logical place to start talking about them.
The setting is Italy in the year 1500. The idea is to build two opposing factions: one consisting of a largely historical army of an alliance of various Italian States, albeit including some of Leonardo's war machines (or pieces inspired by them). The other force has some historical units, but mainly contains demons and other creatures from Dante's Inferno, plus hordes of evil skeleton soldiers. (Led by a demonic Pope Alexander VI... obviously.)
Now, the Ancients subforum also features mythological aspects, but this isn't specified elsewhere, and some periods with popular fantasy/sci-fi spin-offs (VSF, Weird Wars) have separate sections anyway. If the real-world aspects warrant a historical subforum, I've seen the Italian Wars feature in both Medieval and Renaissance I think. If not, I suppose it'll simply be the Fantasy subforum.
Any input from a moderator?
I figure I could just post a topic and it'll be moved elsewhere if needed, but an actual topic with guidance might prove informative to other indecisive hobbyists working on strange subjects in the future.
