Blog discription

What will you find here? Ramblings from an aging gamer-miniature painter. When I first started out in this hobby computers were in their infancy and finding other gamers could only be done by going to conventions or as in my case bumping into somebody who happened to see me reading "Panzer Leader" on the school bus. Look how far we have come! The internet has allowed our small community to be able to connect on a level I never dreamed of when I was but a small lad. What I do hope you will find here is something interesting from one wargamer/miniature painter to another. I paint miniatures somewhat decently, so I will be posting some pictures of my work, and perhaps a review or two of games and/or miniatures. Most of all this is just about having fun and anything I post here is meant to be for that reason.

Carthage's Numidian Cavalry

Adding another unit for my Carthaginian Army for Age of Hannibal for the game system Saga.

Numidian light Cavalry were an important element for the Carthaginian Armies as they were not only good skirmish troops but more importantly vital to the reconnaissance roll.



Here are a few snaps of my Numidians.





As always thanks for looking.

Cheers
Kevin

  1. Great new cavalry unit for your Carthaginian Saga warband, Kevin. I really should get back to playing Saga again.

    1. Thanks Dean, I’ve been playing since first edition and it’s one of the few games I have not tired of. Check out the changes that just came out for the battle boards for Age of Crusade, really helped some of the weaker but popular armies.

      Cheers

    1. Thanks Anton, but I will admit they are shield transfers from little bigmen. My only regret is they could have been brighter had I used plain ole white as base paint for them. I used grey seer, not a good choice.

      Cheers

  3. Great job! The colors on the horses are amazing. The bases really compliment the figures.
