"It's your Troop now, Mr. Colehill."

For inspiration, the repaired wagons en masse, 'road apples' at the rear optional:



Now, show me up with your completed 'wagon trayn'. 

[NickNascati]

Inspiring stuff all around.
Do any of you remember this set of Little Big Horn figures?  They were semi-flat plastic, and came boxed in a tall tube. I think there was a play mat included.  I had loads of fun with that set as a kid.

Massive reinforcements are on their way to Fort Starke. I'm suspicioned, this summer's campaign agin the Hostiles is gonna be a doozy!


 

[CapnJim]

Looking forward to hearing all about it!

Another Cheyenne Dog Soldier Clan prepares for the Warpath!


 

[FifteensAway]

Nice.

And are those the Tiki-totem clan of Dog Soldiers by any chance?  Or are they just vacationing with distant relatives along the Pacific Coast before engaging with the invasive white-eyes once returning home?

More importantly, we are getting closer to a game report perhaps?

They's has.beens' Totem Poles pardner!
All I know is they're Britains/Timpo, from the dawn of time!
 

[FifteensAway]

Anachronistic they may be but I have a couple totem poles myself, one a small and colorful ceramic bit I think I acquired in Arizona - or maybe a thrift store along the way - that fits nicely size-wise with my collection and the other from Irregular Miniatures and it is a bit on the huge side for 15 mm.  And at least the small one will decorate my northern plains Indian village.

Fantastic brush work! Well done.

[Harry Faversham]

Not mine, it's the first batch Dean painted me. He's just sent me a dozen townsfolk, they're equally as good.

Yes, yes, I know, shipping - but maybe available via their UK distributor(?).  But still worth knowing about for anyone doing Old West (or just about anything Eurocentric from 1600 onwards).

"Let sleeping dogs lie."  Wait, does that mean dogs know how to tell untruths!?

Just an aside comment:

Giving my main Old West town the name Anachronism will have its merits one day. 

[Harry Faversham]

Anybody make a scruffy looking band to add to my town. Kind of thinking, a Fatso banging a big Drum. Somebody playing the Tuba, and a couple of worthies tootin' on Spittlehorns.

Curiosity got me hunting and I found this:

Make sure you go for the physical copies unless you own a 3D printer or have someone who can print for you.  And while "Gone to Texas" ain't a bad name, I like "AA Bottom" better (the very opposite of ZZ Top).

As for 'sruffy', ain't that up to the painter!?  Though with those beards they look a bit rough around the edges already.

I'll let you know my "finder's fee" later.   

Oh, and if you look around the site for awhile (if you ain't yet) and end up spending about grand or so, I take no responsibility whatsoever.  But, absolutely, look around - including the accessories (skip the MDF buildings, go for 3D prints from other sources)

A 'Galloper's' just reached Fort Starke, as usual Sergeant Tryree's deepartment!
Word is massed reinforcements will be riding in this weekend, to bring about a final solution to the Indian problem!

Don't want to start a separate thread, so a quick question on 'Rebels and Patriots'. Just gleaned the rules, which I'm told can be tweaked, for Pony Wars games? Some time ago, I'm sure I read an article with 24 point units, 7th. Cavalry and a Cheyenne War Party. Can't find 'em on the Internet, can anyone send up a smoke signal, please?
