I've finished the Arquebusier Troop.

This finishes the final pledge and here is the final force

I'm going to keep adding models to this army at a steady pace the aim is to get a decent force finished for Kings of War and Dragons Rampant in the near future. No new purchases are planned for this army any time soon as I'm still assembling that massive order. Equally you'll get to see new stuff here fairly regularly for the next few months as I haven't shown off the Artillery or any completed Perry Cavalry yet. This army is going to be my primary project for a long while to come!

Long time no update but it's a Compleat Llamahead as well with posts on my Forces of Nurgle https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/360/231101.page#9247091 and Rawl Plug Shenanigans https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/750/356363.page#9283330 as well.
First set of painted Perry Foot Knights

Expectmorecompleted units soon honest.

Here's the first completed unit of the year.......

Ummm better late than never!

Another painted unit. while it may not seem I'm getting much done I'm continuing my habit of batch panting four models but with different equipment and therefore from different regiments this keeps me interested and provides models for Skirmish regiments. Incidentally I've shown these as a troop rather than a regiment for KoW as i think they look better that way and will probably be more effective.

First Perry Mounted Man-at-Arms enters fray. The Perry kits are leaps and bounds ahead of most in terms of layout and options.

Nice job on the mounted knight.

EDC

Looking good, interesting minis as well. How do they relate to GW figs?

Hadn't realised I hadn't done a scale shot. More Gracile is how I would describe it. "True" as opposed to "Heroic" but work fine together.

Interesting. Information stored away for future use . Thanks for the scale shot!

No trouble already done it it was just on my Rawl Plug Shenanigan blog as the three unpainted models were new stuff for Frostgrave

Finally finished my regiment of Foot Guard today huge variety of miniatures in there can anyone name all the makers?

Red Box Games Katherine of Chalton. Excellent no fuss female model.

Perry Knight with a Fireforge Games Russian shield due to historical accuracy the Perry miniatures don't have shields my Knights aren't so worried about reality and therefore have them.

A Troop of Musketeers enters the fray.

Got my first regiment of Pike finished

Just pledged for Joan of Arc on Kickstarter because the Dragon is awesome. This'll start the Army of New Haven in a whole new scale.

Spearmen Troop
All Perry models the Spears being longer and thinner plastic versions just don't scale well with the Brettonian Spearmen. These are minly made with parts from the French Hundred Years War box.

Nice work mate. Those Perry models are great!

Cheers.
Not the best models to demonstrate it because of their pavises but I'm most impressed with the Crossbows most would just research one type but the Perrys did half a dozen with distinct loading mechanisms. Excellent stuff.

They look great - especially with their pavises. Which Perry models are these?

They're mixed and matched from both the European Mercenaries and the Agincourt French Infantry. The Pavises definitely look great but you can't really see all the intricately detailed crossbow mechanisms. The Hand Guns also have an excellent style to them.

Sir Gilbert from Zombicide

Nice stuff. Maybe someday I'll finish my Brettonian Defenders of Vaurendale with some of the Perry figures. Always wanted them to be a bit later period than the usual brets.

Excellent call that. Lovely kits to work with as well.

So it's time for my review of the year. Well for this plog the main aim is to get games in there is apparently a nearby tournament venue for KoW so next year I'll head to there at some point I'm also aiming to play some Dragons Rampant and Open Combat. Modelling wise I'd like to carry on finishing models I'm beginning to get there with the assembly although a lot of Cavalry need to be done and he painting is also going well. I'd like to add some of the Warlord Games plastic Landsknechts but can't really imagine adding much more historical stuff to this force. The main aim is to add a few more explicitly fantasy components to the force mainly from Reaper but crewing my Green Horde Warmachines is also a plan for this army.

So wait ages for one unit to be finished and heres two at once.

More Warlord Games shot with a couple of Firelocks in. The Firelock as a set has only one pose so for actual ECW skirmishers I'd recommend using somebody else.

Warlord Games Horse
and finally a Perry Twins Light Cav so I've finally got something from each box painted up.

Excellent kit actually.

So last week my Landsknecht arrived.
1 Command Sprue per box

5 of these sprues

90 of these fellows from the third off sale. Then at Salute I saw the new Missile Troops and Doppelsoldners. I've held off for now as the sprue mountain was already large but I'll be hmming and hahhing about an order of them sometime soon, although frakly I still think I'll start the Greeks sooner.

Had an excellent game of Kings of War at the club last night. I provided both armies and the Army of New Haven pulled of a win against my Chaos. Kings of War is a fast brutal game the highspot for me was probably the flank charge by the Knight Regiment on the Bloodsworn resulting in the being driven off. Then the Warband managing to drive the Knight Regiment of as my opponent rolled a double 6 for nerve. The Warband was a ajor thorn in my side counting for almost half my losses as they also saw of the Pole-Arms the Foot Guard also did excellently flank charging both the Trolls and the Chaos Knights to win me the battle.

I actually paint a lot more models for this force than I show so I've decided to change how I present them. This is what I've done since I last got the camera out.

A batch of Foot Knights an ECW cavalryman and a batch of infantry. Foot Knights have a different painting mix so they get painted as seperate batches as do my ECW stuff. Hmming and Hahhing about whether to do that with Landsknechts as well......

Nice bunch, should look good on the tabletop
