Definitely highly recommended! And it's been really enjoyable doing the models. The Footsore models are Paul Hicks sculpts and are lovely to paint.might be a fun little project? Alternatively, the rules would translate pretty well over to Sengoku period Japan I reckon...

Other games from today! Anglo-Danes Vs Normans in #SAGA from #StudioTomahawk (a hard fought draw!), the #PokΓ©mon TCG and Combat Commander: Pacific from @gmtgames.bsky.social. The CC series of games really are excellent! A brilliant day of gaming π What a treat! #Wargaming #TabletopGaming
We're having a lovely time!
The Tribune makes a speech, drawing a crowd of civilians!
The centurion of the Vigile Urbani is bludgeoned to death by an angry mob!
All is quiet in the town... Well, apart from those flipping geese!
A few pics of today's 'Song of Shadows and Dust' game! EXCELLENT! #GaneshaGames' rules are fantastic fun and should be tried! Fast play, simple but not basic, and full of character. I'll be playing a lot more! What to add next... #Wargaming #AncientRome #History
Thank you! Now, Footsore also do some very nice baboons....
Vigiles Urbani on patrol.
A Vigiles Urbani centurion and six of his men.
Two bases of sacred geese of Juno.
Two clay coated and whitewashed, wicker, mediterranean bee hives.
The final Romans are complete! The Watchmen of the Vigiles Urbani are ready to patrol, supported by the vigilant sacred geese of Juno! With a few beehives for them to watch over to boot. Tomorrow - WE GAME! π @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social #Wargaming #History #AncientRome #Painting
A few lovely things from #Salute26! Incredibly busy and a great buzz in the hall! Well done everyone who has worked so hard to make this another great event. π #Wargaming
@ontosgames.co.uk is manic a Salute today! π A huge amount of interest and models flying off the shelves. Well done Chris and Amy! You'll need a nap after this one!
Looks nice and roomy this year! π
The best bit was that John, my Syrian friend who was playing the Hobbits, who had no concept that tabletop miniatures games even existed before last night, absolutely LOVED it! βΊοΈ The joy on his face as we played and the laughter! π A great reminder of why I love this hobby!!
Four hobbit miniatures standing on foggy barrow downs terrain...
Sam is sacrificed by a Barrow Wight at one of the barrows!
Goldberry escorts Merry away from a barrow as Tom Bombadil arrives to banish the resident Wight!
Tom and Goldberry escort Merry to meet Frodo and Pippin on the way to Bree to have a drink for Sam in the Prancing Pony...
The hobbits are lost on the Barrow Downs again! π² Poor old Sam bought it, sacrificed by a wight. βΉοΈ Frodo had a narrow escape, as did Merry - before Tom Bombadil and Goldberry arrived to save the day! π Super close and great fun as always! #MESBG #WarhammerCommunity #Wargaming #LOTR
A little bit of an Easter holiday #AdeptusTitanicus intro game! My Warhounds put up a good fight and took down one Reaver, but ultimately both exploded - the second going nuclear! ππ₯ Always a fantastic game! I think the boy liked it... π #WarhammerCommunity #Wargaming #SciFi
Yet more @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social Roman civilians! Last ones for now, I promise! On to the Watchmen of the Vigile Urbani next, and then - A GAME!! π #wargaming #ancient #history #painting
See you there!! π
Post your small things!

More lovely @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social Roman civilians! Well over halfway with these now and got a game lined up so need to get them finished! 5 more civilians and some Watchmen to go now! #Wargaming #Painting #Miniatures #AncientHistory
Happy St Patrick's Day!
Post something green
Cheers Wayne! π Much appreciated! They were fun to do as well. Well done GW on these Warcry kits!
Pleased with these! Monsta Killaz for #Warcry. I wanted to really try my best to see what I could do, and I'm happy I did! There's always more you could do but... At some point you just want to play with them!! π A ghoul warband to do at some point, but back to Romans for now! #WarhammerCommunity
Despite having played sci-fi, fantasy and historical wargames for 34 years, enjoyed many wonderful hours of complicated board/hex games, and DM'd #StarWars and #CallOfCthulhu RPG's, I have NEVER actually played #DnD! On Saturday I finally have my chance! My Dragonborn Monk is ready... Exciting! ππ²
Excellent! π That game really is a lot of fun! Looks great. π
Both!! π
Quote with your horn art!
A Knopf-Keh I converted a while back for #CallofCthulthu themed gaming!

An old couple in robes go for a stroll.
Yet more @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social ancient Romans! We've had some plebs, now here's the nobs. A senator and his retinue, and Ken and Mavis out for a walk. Lovely! Beautiful models to paint as always. βΊοΈ More to come, but a brief Warcry interlude first. #wargaming #wargames #painting #historical
Absolute legend.
Great advice. I've got a big sheet of fur to play with so I'll experiment! Thanks! βΊοΈ
If only I'd known I would have painted him to match!!! I'll just have to get another...
Look lovely! Did you water the paints down or anything like that?
Some more of these gorgeous @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social Roman civilians! Lovely to paint as always. π Really like the "I'm watching you..." fella. The "Come ooooon mum!" one is fun as well. π #Wargaming #Painting #MiniaturePainting #History #SongOfShadowsAndDust
Beautiful looking tables! π I'm really pleased to hear it went well. I'd love to have been there!
