Late Roman DBM Army

It's amazing what you can find on your expansion drive - my old 15 mm Late Roman Army for DBM. Though painting the army was fun, I found DBM quite boring as it seemed every battle was the same. I know other gamers who find it very exciting - that's what great about the hobby! The variety of games and gamers has never been greater.

He Has Risen!

Resurrection

John 11:24-26 New International Version (NIV)

²⁴ Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
²⁵ Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; ²⁶ and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

IHMN: Prelude of What's to come in the War of the Witches

"Have you seen any monsters?"

"Yes, I have seen quite a few."

"Are you afraid of the monsters?"

"No, they are afraid of me."

Not much on the gaming front lately with work, school, researching the AWI in the South, etc.; but we are getting ready to continue the "War of the Witches" campaign using the great rules In Her Majesty's Name.  On the other hand, I have finished (or have gotten real darn close) the rest of the "main" players and accessories to finish the campaign.  Here are some pictures of what is coming and don't be fooled by some of the pictures as I was using the old Hero Quest accessories as a background - but don't worry; we will be in Darkest Africa, the Wild West, North Piddle and maybe a surprise location or two!

 (L to R Coira Armstrong, Mycroft Holmes (The Government), Colonel Armstrong VC, DSO, Mr. Randolph Carter and Sherlock Holmes)

"I have deduced where the Tesla gates are coming from," announced Sherlock Holmes.
"I know where they come from," replied Mr. Carter," The question is, who is creating them?"

"It's time to rescue Professor Nightengale, and I know exactly who we should send since Lord Greystoke is keeping an eye on She Who Must Be Obeyed."

"So this is what you have been investigating in North Piddle!"

Now is the time to strike - and I want the Chinese and The Shadow dead.

Meanwhile in the Miskatonic University Library - "This is NOT good." (note: The same figure will be Mycroft Holmes and Professor Albert N. Wilmarth)

Wanted Dead or Alive: The Wicked Witch of the West

The threat of Lo Pan - can Jack Burton be far behind?

The Witch King of Sokur returns!  And he is not happy (plus we need him for the campaign now that Omar is dead!)

"We must do this for the Republic to survive!"

This is definitely not good for mankind.

 "Let's see how the Tin Man likes this!"

The key to Victory?

Trouble in Oz.

Dr. Watson on active duty with Department H (there is no Department H) finds the Caretaker of the British Museum Annex in North Piddle - but something is on their trail.

Good Friday

Matthew 27:54 New International Version (NIV)

⁵⁴ When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!”

How about some Late Romans?

Here is my Late Roman army that was originally mounted for Warhammer Ancients but now is mounted for Dux Bellorum. 

 Roman Infantry with the Dux Bellorum with his body guard of Huns right behind them.

 More Infantry - all of the shields were hand painted.

 The Boss and his comitatus of Huns.

 Light skirmishing cavalry with javelins.

 The Heavy cavalry.

 Infantry skirmishers with javelins.

 I always thought the dismounted officer was sculpted with great character.

 The super heavies - Clibanarii cavalry. I love the book Island of Ghosts and imagine that they are the inspiration for Arthur's Knights.

 Archers or separate the two bases and they become skirmishers.

 Those Saxon Warbands don't look that tough.
