Another step towards being ready for action.
Given they'll likely be used for historical fiction games, I just call them 'Ross's Rangers'

Rangers Training
Born and raised in the suburbs of Montreal 7 decades ago. Began playing with toy soldiers at 5 years. Started painting & converting at about 12 yrs and wargaming about 15 yrs. Never really stopped.
5 years in the Black Watch of Canada Cadets, 5 years at the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean followed by 4 in the navy. 25 years with CPC in IT simultaneous with 23 years running a boarding kennel. Inherited my love of toy soldiers from my mother's father. Married with a pack of litle Italian Greyhounds and a cat. Prematurely retired and enjoying leisure to game, maintaining our 170 yr old farmhouse and just living.

ReplyDeleteThat 1st game is liable to tell their worth.
DeleteNice name - I'm sure they'll live up to it (though I usually find the newbies get a terrible kicking from the seasoned campaigners.)
ReplyDeleteOnly time will tell.
ReplyDeleteA great fusion of Prince August bits to make the figures your own. Full of character and animation …
ReplyDeleteThe ability to swap parts, esp heads, is a great feature of this range.
DeleteI've given up trying to train my figures. I keep giving them orders and they just stand, not taking a blind bit of notice.
ReplyDeleteWhen one of my shelf supports managed to disengage, the lads displayed a distressing deal of movement.....
