Italian Wars Command Bases
« on: August 09, 2021, 04:19:37 PM »








https://yarkshiregamer.blogspot.com/2021/08/italian-wars-command-bases.html

I've had a reet grand time knocking up some named Command Bases for my Italian Wars collection.

There is a King of France, Gonzaga a generic Papal Commander and the man, Cesare Borgia himself.

Full details of figures used etc on the blog post link above, thanks for stopping by.

Those all look fantastic, Ken! 👍. I love the colour themes on each command base, and the details on the barding is brilliant.  :o

Command bases and other vignettes really make a game look the bees knees.

Are you still using Furioso Ken?

Cheers mate.

We are still on with Furioso and tried out a few more tweaks today, with the stuff we did with the Generals it added a new dimension to the game and it was a cracking knock about, can't see us moving on from them now.

Good one. I hope to hear about any tweaks as and when appropriate. I still haven't managed a single game due to you know what..... :(
