Archers Late Roman 6

 Here is the last unit for my small  Late Roman army, a unit of Gripping Beast plastic archers, nice simple figures with enough detail, individualy mounted in 1ps and then on a 120mm sabot base from Warbases.

Pretty straightforward, I wouldn't mind doing some more, I might expand this or do another force?

Here's a little parade as the army as  its technically complete...yeah right! Actually, I'd like to do some unarmoured spearmen too. Originally for Dux Bellorum, the basing suits it for Midgard, although I'll need some heroes/champions and generals but I can pinch from other collections for that, I'm thinking of this as Coel Hen, the last Dux Britanniarum or old king Cole's army, it does remind me ,I could do with pimping my old airfix fort?

Great Italian wars, Napoleonics and dark ages fighting it out on the painting desk at the moment, plus a few AARs, not sure what will be done first!

All the best

Battle of Cerignola 1503 AAR , Valour and Fortitude Great Italian Wars 60

 We had another go at a Great Italian wars battle with the new V4 version of Valour and Fortitude. We went for Cerignola this time and Des put it into chatgbt to get a scenario for V&F v4 on a 6' x 4' board

Surprisingly good and a much greater improvement on the last AI generated V&F scenario.

The objectives for the French were all on the other side of the ditch and the French had no option but to attack and get shot to pieces in the ditch, one unit managed to clear the ditch but were dispatched by a fresh landscknecht pike block, the Spanish cavalry were defeated when they eventually activated, the palazzo in an incomplete form also made its first appearance. An historical result which I was much happier with, in spite of being the French!

Another good, fast and brutal V&F game.

Next up? Dark ages, more Italian wars or possibly Napoleonic?

All the best
