Finished a 3,000 point Hundred Years War French Army for WAB. I have some OG & 1st Corps Greek Hoplites to do next.  They can be allies or mercenaries for my Macedonian army or by themselves to fight Persians or each other.  Other projects for 2009: WWI French & German Trench Fighters; Napoleonics; Ancient Naval; terrain projects; etc. etc.

New Images in the \"New\" Site | 2008-10-06 20:58:03
 

Okay - thanks to Buddy for helping me get logged in again (operator headspace - me), I\'ve managed to post pics of my Norman WAB army in 28mm.  This new format is simpler, but I\'m still getting the hang of it.  I see we can add larger file images (over twice the size?) .  I\'ve kept it at the same size as before - no need to take up more space than necessary.  Long Live the new Displaced Minis Site!

Re-Direct on Future WAB Army | 2008-07-20 18:37:39
 Guess the HYW French WAB army is going to be put on hold. Per discussion with the local WAB gaming folks, looks like I'm going to start a Norman army for Shieldwall - possibly use it for Crusades & El Cid too. Most of the local WAB-enthusiasts already have armies for these supplements, so I was "encouraged" to build one too while I await them finishing up their respective Carthaginian & Republican Romans armies - I already finished my Macedonian-Successor army. Actually, I had intended to build a Norman army around the time I started on my Mycenaean WAB army a couple of years ago.

Hundred Years War French Army - WIP | 2008-07-20 18:36:56
 

No sooner had I finished the last unit of a basic Macedonian/Successor WAB army (Pyrrhus' Epirote Italian Invasion army) - that I'm now working on a HYW French WAB army.  Only one unit so far - Old Glory/Revenge dismounted knights - since this army will be cavalry points-heavy, this is fine.  Currently working on a Jeanne d'Arc set from Perry Miniatures.

Current Projects Completed & Working On | 2008-01-27 19:42:59
 

- Added several more Curteys and 1st Corps figures to round up an Early Samurai WAB army to about 1850pts.  Plan to play this army in January at a small historical convention.

- Started on a Macedonian/Successor WAB army.  I  have always been intrigued by Alexander the Great, and winning a bid off of ebay for a small phalanx unit of Foundry figures got me hooked.  I'm finishing up a unit each of Vendel & A&A phalangites.  Along with the Foundry unit, these will be the core of the armies which should be able to morph from an Alexander the Great Macedonian army into various Successor armies.  I have some A&A Macedonian Companion Cavalry to paint.

- Nothing new to WW2 stuff.  I STILL haven't finished paining a small VFM Waffen SS unit.  Their faces have been done a long time ago - just haven't gotten the courage to attempt the camoflage uniforms yet.

-On another (more serious ) note, I'm retiring from the Army early next year - actually start my leave (final work day) on 1 Feb.  Still haven't found a new job, but am still looking.
