My Empire Army

For years I have been putting this army together, only to wander off and get distracted by something else. So I have packed everything else away and I will finish this. It's currently sitting at around 1400 points. I have the marauder landsknecht style ogres so I might add them as mercenaries, or maybe the marauder landsknecht style dwarfs as I have those as well
 
You should be able to! Actual nuance of it might vary a bit between phone browsers. However clicking the image button in the text editor and clicking to select a file should trigger whatever gallery media browser you have on your phone to select an image.

Well you've wetted my appetite for some Empires modes ... lets see some pics!
 
Thanks Eric, I think I was trying to add some overly large pictures.
I'm currently in a caravan on the Essex coast so when I return to civilization I will have another go.

Yes, image was far to big. Here is the full army so far and not a single double

The cannon
1000005845.jpg
The 20 Helblitzen, only one more to paint, bases to do and a bit of a touch up on the standard bearer that fell off the table and chipped it's hat. 1000005847.jpg
20 Ersatzsolder, lots still to do
1000005848.jpg
10 Armbrustshutzen, some of these need a touch up and all the bases the same 1000005846.jpg
20 Landesturm, again, the bases need sorting out 1000005844.jpg
The army general flanked by 10 (not) Reiksguard, the army standard and a wizard.

10 scouts

The baggage, I think this one is the armourers cart whithout the banner bit.

Lots to do and I would like to bring it up to 2000 points, I think the marauder miniatures Landsknecht style ogres will be perfect.

F2 fighters, they will be the generals body guard (using Reiksguard stats from warhammer armies)
1000006295.jpg
C series Fighter (1985), the original knights Panther? 1000006294.jpg
And finally, C46 militia "gut bucket" the final member of my Helblitzen done.

It will be a month or more before I paint again but, I'm happy with this months progress
Thanks for the encouragement, it really helps
Ben

From the left, CO7 ranger "trapper", who is also John the trapper in the blood on the streets scenario pack
Middle, CO7 ranger "long arm", who is also Arathon the ranger in blood on the streets.
Right, F2 fighter "Astol the archer"

These are the first 3 of a 10 strong unit of Bergjaeger (scouts). I really should paint up the rest of the blood on the streets miniatures, maybe a new work in progress....
 
Lovely models. The scouts in particular are very nice.

I will put something on the top of the pole when I find something suitable.

Would the top off this knight's helm work for you? (5mm cutting mat grid)

Noticed it whilst rummaging yesterday for something for a different project in the very messy unsorted bits box... Happy to pop it in the post just PM me!
 
That looks perfect Eric. I'm away working nights at the moment, but I am returning home tomorrow. I will check my bits box and see if I have anything similar to save you the postage.
I think bits boxes should definitely be very messy, Mine certainly is

It's been six weeks since I last painted anything, work really does get in the way.
I now have a couple of weeks where I intend to churn out one miniature a night. Last night was this Citadel C07 Ranger "gamekeeper". I found this one challenging to paint for some reason.

He was very busy back in the 80s, also being Bran the ferryman for Blood on the Streets and a bandit in Death on the Reik for WFRP.
I am now due to run Death on the Riek early next year for a group who I ran the first parts of the Enemy Within a while back. That means I need to finish up this empire army quick and start painting up some gobbos

Tonight's miniature is Errol flynn.
Targeteer from the Citadel C07 rangers, also playing a role in Death on the Reik as another bandit.
That make 5 scouts, 5 more to go....
