A New 10mm Project - French North Africa

[sunjester]

After Orcs has been nudging me to start a new project for a while, I've dragged him into the delights of the French Foreign Legion.

[Orcs]

Yep, he dragged me kicking and screaming "I don't want another project, I don't need to do it"

Then when I got to his house for a game last Friday he had ordered two Armies for us to split. !!!!!

Then on Saturday a parcel was obviously delivered by the Postman by mistake and it by coincidence contained a North African fort and Bedouin tents.

Good men - keep the Tricolour flying!

Be careful with that fort mind - it's a solid lump of resin - you could really hurt someone with it

Tuaregs looking good (maybe a black wash to accentuate the folds of the Tagelmust?).

Have you seen the LaserCraft range?

Seconded



Perhaps a finer grain sand, unless they are in a rocky desert

Its a very nice piece of kit, as are the tents

Hello sunjester

How do the Lancaster 10s match up in size with Pendraken? You could probably pad out the Berbers/Tuaregs with Pendraken Afghans or Mahdists if the size is ok.

I've found this good for fast cheap houses:-

Ah, those Little Wars range only need to add spear armed Tueregs and that is most of the Arabs for Napoleonic era covered.

With those card building sets from the Wargames Vault, how easy is it to scale them down to 10mm? What thickness of card/paper do you use?

They are slightly taller than the Pendraken figures I had laying around, which were from the Marlburian range. Not so much that they would look too out of place. The horses look bigger, but I haven't got any Pendraken cavalry to hand to compare.

Thanks for the heads up on those buildings.

I may have posted this here before

We've still got a couple of the Total Battle North Africa sets here if you're interested, marked down by about 30% I think?

No idea what they are Leon, any clues....
