Various 15mm

 Just a few bits that I picked at random from my lead mountain, yes I have a very large and varied lead mountain sat at work...

16 Desert Orcs, figures by Alternative Armies.  I have a good amount of these already painted and based and will show them in future posts.

1st Battalion Dalmatian Regiment of the Italian Army that joined Napoleon in the invasion of Russia in 1812


Two units of fantasy foot from the city state of Sterland. A unit of halbadiers and one of crossbowmen.

The figures are Blue Moon Italian Wars Swiss.

More 'Black Orcs'

Here are the latest batch of my ever expanding 15mm Fantasy, the only scale to play out these epic struggles'.

Saying that these figures are about 18mm and quite stocky, hence Black Orcs or Great Orcs.


The models themselves are from the Blood Dawn range supplied by Magistar Militair.  They are lovely models and paint up very well.

In this batch we have 2 1/2 infantry units and 1 wild boar unit.


They are based on 80mmx40mm and 2 bases to a standard unit.


Personally I favour the fan generated Hail Caesar Fantasy rules, the Hail Caesar rules themselves are very good and easily adapted to the fantasy genre.  However they could happily be used in many rule systems that do not require individual or element removal.


A little word about the bases, they were bought from Tiny Tin Troopers and come pre magnabased and they are just great. The cost of the bases works out the same when compared with buying pre cut bases and magnetic strips yourself!  Well worth the money.

Clash Of Evil, The Skeletons!

Here we have the skeleton hordes that Al used against me. They used to belong to me but I sold them on when my other 15mm Fantasy armies began to take over.
They are a mix of Essex and Ral Patha, I am not sure who makes the bohemoths but they are nice.

The cavalry backed by two bohemoths, a powerful right flank. The figures are from both manufacturers.
The infantry centre supported by fliers, the fliers are old GW I think? The infantry are Essex and may be Tin Soldier?
A better view of the bohemoths.
The right side of the field.

15mm Black Orcs

Black Orcs

Ok as some of you will know and as I say on this blog my long time love is 15mm Fantasy Mass Battle!. So why has it taken so long for me to paint any..........well I did do some Dwarves last year (I will put pictures up).

So here is the start of my 2011 offering to the hordes of fantasy. These are Blood Dawn Orcs, sold in the UK by Magister Militum.



These miniatures are on the larger side of 15mm, more like 18mm and very chucky but I think that adds to the appeal. They just said 'Black Orc' to me so that is how I will represent them.

These guys will actually be getting an outing in a couple of weeks. they will be taking on Al's Undead in a 'Black Magic' game. This is a new thing for us and is simply a few additions to Warlord's Black Powder. It is free on the Yahoo Group and looks good fun.

What we are really aiming for is using Warlord's, well Rick Priestly's Hail Caesar ancient rules that have just come out. The same guy who wrote the Black Magic additions has started on Hail Caesar so hopefully it will not be long and finally my vast fantasy armies will be dusted off and the field of battle once more!

There will be pictures of the armies involved and the battle itself.
