After all the pontificating about Mongols that i do on the forum I thought it was about time I put up or shut up. On my blog I have posted a number of pics of the various scale armies that I have.

Have a look if you want to at:

C'mon, admit it, you just looked at the pics, didn't you. At the bottom of the post it says I will post some pics of the opposition armies next time.

You can never have enough Mongols!!!

I have a 15mm army - all Museum Miniatures - which occasionally get an outing against themselves using a set of Colonial  rules called Battles for Empire

Currently I am painting up a ton of Pendraken Mongols and trying to persuade 4Ground to make some 10mm Central Asian city walls and buildings

I would appreciate a peek at your rules

Just had a look at your blog. Nice figs; like the idea of wide open flanks but I've never heard of those rules before. Mind you there are probably more sets of rules than grains of sand in the Sahara that I've never heard of.

So you have Mongols in 6mm, 10mm, 15mm and 28mm, why not 40mm as well? :)

You may mock,  :) but if I had the space and the finances there is every chance that would happen. So when I win the Lottery...new house with large wargames room/study, holiday and 40mm Mongol army plus opposition army(ies). I might even learn to drive!

Speaking of oppositions armies, could some of the mongols be used as Huns for my late Romans to fight against ?
