Owac VIII Intro post - Sybou's Baronny

 Hello everyone,

glad to be again a part of the Owac.

For these year 2025, i'm going to carry on the Baron's army.

Back in the days, i started it with mostly Foundry Miniatures and a green & white colors scheme ; i found lots of old empire and stuff to bulk the army and now it's time to make some good progress on the army.

The background of the army focuses on the Greyhald Baron who's an old prick. Only his powerful axe allowing him to survive his old years.

The baronny is located in the border princes where everyone can do what he wants if you have enough men and/ or money.

Here is the army:

We have:

• 24 billmen with a merchant
• 13 crossbowmen with a merchant
• 15 good to no good free companies
• 1 canon
• 1 hellfire canon
• 1 captain on steed
• 1 outcast wizard named "Tim"
• 10 riders from a strange misty land ready to work against money

The baron is not part of this batch but if I'm good enough maybe i could insert him there.

For my offering, I choose JB as we are in the same country and it will be easier to send him the miniature.

It s a confrontation miniature, really chaosy and the whip makes him a bit Slaanesh like.

Well, here we are. Close to the end of year.

Happy new year to everyone and get your brushes ready!

JamesP's second Helblitzen unit with canon (238 Points)

Here is this month’s entry. No story this month as both units were detailed in my first Helblitzen post, just a short explanation. Some of you may have wondered why there are no banners in the army. I will add the banners last along with the shields, where needed. This isn’t done out of a sense of dramatic reveal but out of tradition. I’ve always painted the shields and banners last to coordinate them to tie the army together…and because I procrastinate painting them.

As I mentioned in the first month this is the first half of a 3000 point army. The required troop choices, or State troops wear the white and yellow livery of Solland. The second half of the army will consist of militia and other raised troops. They are provided with a shield painted in the Solland colours and are equipped with whatever they can get their hands on.
