Helping Hands 7 - The squire

Seventh of the monthly posting of the other world Henchman in conjunction with Duke of the Blood Keep and Minis by Finch 



Old Citadel Giant Snail - Terrifying!
Thanks to this challenge I actually finished an otherworld figure. At the moment I am lagging behind on what I want to do, despite having nearly 2 weeks off.

The squire started as a chore to get done but after breaking the back of the figure I eventually learnt to love him.Hopefully the next two in the challenge will be easier.

My total figure count for 2015 is going to be 192 and has stuck to mainly to my main on going projects:-

D&D Adventures 97
Darkest Africa     67
US WW2             22
Call of Cthulhu       6

Total                   192

Unfortunately the distraction into WW2 prevented me finishing my masai (19 to go).

For 2015 the intention is to finish the yanks  20 odd to go, the Masai and to carry on with the D&D stuff. I am also considering pushing out the remainder of my moderns z's but time will tell.

Unfortunately I did get a job lot of around 500 war of the roses figures for next to nothing (roughly 3 years paining) and am tempted by the Lion Rampant rules.Other potential distractions are my ECW skirmish horror project (figures in a box somewhere) and to finish of my Saxons for Saga.

New set of Mordheim Buildings

Last month I finished off my second set of GW Mordheim buildings. Both sets now complete, just need to get around to playing some games.   

Warhammer Fantasy Battle

So having now painted a fair number of fantasy figures there is a need to start to work out how they could be used. Mordheim initially springs to mind with a solid background and some nice terrain already build. My original plan was to use the figures as part of a D&D game but this still looks a long way off. With my thoughts returning to old school gaming I have been toying with gladiatorial battles perhaps using the fantasy trip or one of the early old school games. This has now come around to possibly using 3 rd (or 2 nd ) edition warhammer fantasy battle.  These early rule sets certainly cover most of the creatures that I was thinking of using and of course I already own the rules. For 3 rd edition I have the rulebook, siege, army lists and slaves to darkness. So plenty to be getting on with. I also have the box and booklet for Terror of the Lichemaster but the cardboard figures and most of the buildings are long gone. However I do really like the later editions of WHFB, w
