Saga Irish
« on: October 27, 2013, 08:17:49 AM »
"Your island? You mean Ireland??"
"Yeah, it's MINE!!"  o_o

Saga-Warband everywhere you look... it's a great game, so no wonder here.
And here's another one, my freshly painted irish:

Warlord and his pets, 2 of them are on the base of the Warlord as optional pimp, the dog-unit itself consists of 6 irish Warhounds (because you get 8 warriors per Point the remaining 2 fill up the other warrior-unit to 10 models):


7 Hearthguard, one will be upgraded to be a Curaidh. I planned the models to be Warriors when I bought them, because of their lack of armour, but then realised you can't give warriors two-handed axes in the irish list... well now they are hearthguard:


Curaidh:


Warriors with javelins and banner:


Here some tartan-closeup:


The first 4 points. Comments and criticism welcome.

That's superb. I can't even pick out any piece that stands out, because it's all so damn good, start to finish.

Fantastic work - figures and terrain both. Who will they be fighting against - other Irish, Vikings or Normans? Would like to read an AAR on any potential match up here.
