Holy guacemole! You've got a really big bunch of Westerosi already 

Do you have any idea how many you got in total?

Do you have any idea how many you got in total?

I don't have a count actually. But thinking of boxes and blisters I estimate there are some 100 northerners, includung 6 riders, about 95 southerners from Dorne or so including 29 riders, some 30 wildlings including 5 giants, 30 men of the nights watch and some 70 undead/white wanderers.

So in summa I have about 350 figures painted for the theme of Westeros. Added are 8 unsullied and 10 city guards from the free cities.

All of them painted in the last 13 months...

The one in the white robe would make a nice Dothraki!

Never any chance of boring me - I am enjoying the painted miniatures.

Thanks, very kind!

I have managed to have a game played with my GoT figures.

I was the umpire with the task to check the rules book (Hail Cesar) whenever necessary. As no one of us ever did a HC game, it became necessary quite often  .

But I have a lot of pictures to show you all. Please excuse the limited quality of the shots.

The game was supposed to reflect some imaginary battle of northern troops on the border of Dorne, the northerners being supporters of Robert Baratheon during the war between Robert an the Targaryen king. There were no scenario conditions, just defeat the other side!






The Northerners in detail:









The  Dornish in detail









During play:




Because of my small table (just 180 cm * 110 cm) we measured cm instead of inches.

After 3 rounds of movement only with the northerners hardly moving at all the game went utterly wrong for the Dornish. They lost allmost all of their light cavalry in the first clashes ans the dornish divisions dissolved very quickly.

Both players criticized that you could not at all rely on the units to behave as you saw fit. This is because of the need to take an order test to move at all.
We might use the house rule of some Berlin Black Powder players giving every unit 1 or 2 moves every turn with the need to take a normal order test for formation tests or a very good test for more than the free moves.

All in all, the game went well. Felt good to have all the figures on the table.

Success!!!

Well done 

Looks like quite a spread. Can't wait for my first game with mine... But it's a slow burn...

Great looking game!

I'm very late to this thread but this is terrific - especially the Night's Watch and the undead. I can't stand figures that are standing around but all of these have dynamic, action packed poses, full of movement and drama. Great stuff!

I do not own a copy of HC, but is it the these days seemingly omnipresent rule of 'fail to activate, forfeit the rest of your turn'?

Normally, I do not have anything against activation rolls (poorly trained troops being harder to control/motivate), but when a whole game (especially those with scenario objectives) can be lost because of a couple of bad rolls, which is the case when you do not get to activate anything else, just because one of your better units blunder a bit, it starts to get annoying.

After all the years I've gone without a game, I don't think I qualify as a gamer anymore, but all the WONDERFUL miniatures & terrain look FANTASTIC...AND I don't have to know the rules to enjoy the photos. VERY WELL DONE!
