15mm Dwarves 3



Have added a few more units to my Dwarves army, which is nearly finished, now. I have a couple of units of Light Foot handgunners. Not sure what use they will be on the battlefield as they are skirmishers, but can't move and shoot coz they have firearms. I made another unit of mammoths coz I felt why have one unit when I could have two? And I have a Large unit of berserker types.

I also bought a new dice bag from Saddle Goose Designs. What self-respecting Sword and Spear army wouldn't go into battle supported by a matching dice bag? And I also felt the need to buy a set of matching combat dice, and a set of matching activation dice. That's normal behaviour, right?

15mm Dwarves 2



Finished some more dwarves. Just have the heavy infantry and some skirmishing arquebusiers to go, now. I built my balloon, which went ok. I decided it made more sense to make it a War Wagon with Flight, rather than Light Foot, which made it slightly more expensive, and a bit harder to fly because it shoots to its flank instead of its front.

15mm Dwarves



I have started a 15mm Dwarf army for Sword and Spear Fantasy. All my potential opponents seem to have a lot more 15mm stuff than 28mm stuff, so I've had to join them, even if they are using the wrong scale.

I have the army list below worked out for what I have already bought. Most of the minis are Blood Dawn Dwarves from Magister Militum. The Mammoths (which look a bit cuter than I was hoping) are from Alternative Armies and I bought a viking boat from Essex Miniatures which I am planning on turning into a hot air balloon.


66 Dwarves: 22,33  (1130) (+Gen 90, Cap 60 x2 =120, Wiz2+Wiz2= 160 == 370) = 1500
