There's something funny going on.

Three block pictures:
Left one has only 8 minis - centre is just a space - so 26 models shown.

Individual pics are showing 27.

But Middle block front left figure - converted metal gun crew? - next to the marauder bare torso guy, is missing from the individual shots?

Valten is obviously the blacksmith, and I can see a couple of farmers.

Nice! I see the farmers and burninators. But if I may be so unpolite, why not field them 5 × 2?

The very first one is not the model I thought it was?

I am intrigued - how was he made?

Oh and your maths just gets worse ........... 3 + 3 = 6 .......... not 7

First comment = first pic

second comment = second pic

So, 3+3+1 = 7

Have you added to his hair - maybe it's the angle - I have the model and still don't "recognise" it.

Valten kind of stuck out, but I'm not a big fan of that figure.

I see at least three Mordhiem figures the two young bloods, and I believe the other is a captain.

Seems to be a bunch of  unhelmeted knight heads (good idea).

Maybe some pistolier arms?

I'll come back and look again.

Hi

the easiest source is old compact discs, just tape over the hole and then do basing on the disc.  There are other methods but this is the cheapest and involves to least work. steveb

Ok thx I finde them a bit too big, theres some lovely warhammer 40k bases but gw charges a fortune. I was at a wargames convention and no one made big round bases, and I think theres a market for them. Weird

Id say roughly 100 mm in diameter for an artillery base, I got 1 when I bought a griffon on ebay. Thx for the quick reply. I also use your system for the steamtank, it works well

I doubled the Heavy lancers' unit size... They are now as intended, a flexible unit (2*5 +/- mus, 1*10+full command, anything inbetween)
