I too was thinking someone waving a white flag for 'Truce'
But also, how about:-
Noble being stabbed in the back = Treachery
Puddles with rain 'dimples' in = Sudden rain
Bush with an arm holding a bow sticking out of it = Ambush.

All good suggestions 👍
However,careful we don't hijack the good Captain's thread!

very nice markers

. No worries.
Great models Steve, I think those two certainly are worth making models for, although for the ditch, it’s really necessary. I do love the chap with the wheelbarrow of arrow bags.

Thanks Colin.
It’s simply yacht varnish over paint

I’ve had too many failures over the years using model railway scenic ‘water’ products. These days I stick to the tried and tested low tech solution

Excellent work on these vignettes, they make a great difference to games

Wonderful! At the end of the year you will show us the 1:1-Table of the last battle of the WotR with all the figures, right? I think it were only 10.000 against 10.000, more than the half did you paint the last weeks, Richard.

Cheers Stuart and Dirk

Meanwhile, I've finished off a couple more Daunted markers - a HYW version (for reasons which will become apparent in the fullness of time) and an equestrian token for use with daunted cavalry companies! (Yes, it's another fallen De Vere... The poor old Earl of Oxford is losing men fast
