AHPC XIII: GrahameH - More of the same - 15mm Midianites & Prussian Napoleonics

 More of the same I am afraid but I have now finished the Midianites (Essex Miniatures)

The Midianites 

So first up the last of the Midianite Warbands. Two units, each of 30 figures. I have no idea why but I have always wanted this army and have had the figures for years. So really pleased that the Challenge has given me the opportunity to paint them. I do try to paint a small army for the Challenge each year, so this is this years army. 




Some bowmen (3 units each containing 18 figures)



Two units of skirmishing slingers (9 figures each)



And finally, for the Midianites my last camels (Hurrah!!). These will be added to the baggage


Midianites Points 

Warband (60 Figures) = 120pts

Bowmen (54 Figures) = 108pts

Slingers (18 Figures) = 36pts

Camels (7 Figures) = 14pts 

Total = 278pts


Napoleonic Prussian 

I thought I had nearly finished this army, but I have just purchased 32 more cavalry, purely because I liked the uniform! As they say armies are never finished. 

So, I have painted some cannon for the army. I painted the crew about a year ago, but the thought of painting some many cannons was rather off putting. However, all done now. 25 cannons of various calibre. 


 

Also five Limbers (AB Miniatures)



And of course more cavalry (all AB miniatures)

Cuirassier Regt.



A Uhlan Regt.




Finally, my favourite, the 2nd (Leib) Hussars. 



That is it for the Prussians. I need to decide which Napoleonics to do next. I dare say it will involve cavalry. 

Points 

25 Cannon at 4pts = 100pts

5 Limbers 9 Figures = 110pts ed:58pts

Cuirassiers = 32 Cavalry figures = 128pts

Uhlans = 32 Cavalry figures = 128pts

Hussars = 32 Cavalry figures = 128pts 

Total 594pts 


LOTR Men of Gondor 

24 Gondor Infantry 



Pts for Gondor = 120

I think that this brings this entries total to 992pts
