Warfare 2023 Loot

 


I had quite a successful spending spree at Warfare, once again I hadn't planned on spending much but......


Products for Wargaming had some very nice field bases. I was planning on making my own, but it was easier buying them. I went for 1 x 15x8 field, 2 x 12x6 and 2 x 6x4's.




They were £8, £6 and £4, so a bargain!


2 buildings from Warbases


5 small cobblestone mats from Deepcut Studio


These can be used in any of my 25/28mm periods.


A few paints.....from Sheppey Models


You can never have enough Oxen can you?  These Black Tree figures were in the bargain bin from 


Can't remember who I bought these from, these will be used to make some 2mm woods and forests.


An impulse buy from Charlie Foxtrot, some 28mm walling for my Haitian Revolution project.


Back to Products for Wargaming. Another building, this one is from their luvvly medieval range.


If Iron Gate Scenery are at a show, I have to get something from them. Their range of bits and bobs are brilliant. This time round it was some Highland cattle, a tannery, perfect for some Native American's and a stone sheep pen.


Lastly more Highland Cattle, these 2 were from Disdain Studios, why do I need more 
Highland Cattle, you ask?

Well.....why not?

AHPC12 - Odds & Sods


Just a small post, these figures were painted up early in the Challenge but I've only got around in posting them now. 


This poor chap comes from Iron Gate Scenery and can be purchased for the princely sum of £4.50!
Its a made from PLC, whatever that is?


The poor chap sitting inside the Torture Cage has definitely seen better days.


Looks like he's been in there for a while?


The Doc, he was originally painted up to be my Doctor figure, for Planet Skaro in the bonus round, but I changed my mind and painted the French Scientists instead.


He is actual a Pirate Doctor from Foundry


He shall probably vanish into my civilian box of doom.


Finally some boxes, once again from Iron Gate Scenery


I'm not really sure of the points for this one?

5pts for the doctor
1pt Torture Cage?
5 pts Skeleton
2pts boxes?

I shall let our humble minion work this one out.
Cheers!

AHPC12 - Iron Gate Scenary - Blacksmith's Forge


     Cybertron: Robot(s), Transformation/Transformative
For my visit to planet Cybertron, I thought I would use the Transformation description which would fit perfect for this wonderful piece of kit. A Blacksmith's forge that would transform base metal into weapons and other items a little less useful for a wargamer.


Once again its from those very clever chaps at Iron Gate Scenery, who really do make some great items for wargaming. This kit can be purchased for the modest sum of £14


Its an all plastic and resin kit, which fits together very easily. The base is from Warbases and is left over from the stack I bought to make jungle terrain a few Challenges ago.


Its probably more based on the medieval period, but hey ho, I think this fits for the Donnybrook period spot on.


And of course you need a Blacksmith, I can't remember where this chap comes from, sorry?
But with that stylish tache, who cares!


And here's his Dad, who's a Redoubt figures, from I think, their AWI range?


He's working very hard, poor chap.


There's a hole under the fire pit, for a tea lightbulb, which makes it looks like the flames are flickering. 
I did take a 5 second film. but can't get the bugger to work!!!
oh well


I hate working out how much buildings are worth, its 6 x 3 x 2 inches, so I'd hazard a guess at 5pts??

2 x 25mm figures @5 points
1 x 25mm horse@5pts
Forge @5pts
Cyberton Bonus 20pts

So I'd say 35pts???
What do you reckon Greg?

Unfortunately Greg, my Minion, didn't agree that my Blacksmiths forge fitted in with the Transformational part of the bonus round??? So I lost any bonus points only receiving
25 points for all that hard work.
Boooo!!!!

AHPC12 - Donnybrook Prisoner Wagon & Cate Cramer




My 3rd post of the day!!! Sorry Greg!

My first stop is Caprica where I will invoke those who are Doomed. I was going to paint this Prison wagon up for the Challenge anyway so it was pretty handy that it fitted into Caprica/Doomed perfectly.


My prisoner wagon contains 3 Rebel traitors being driven to their doom, just after the Battle of Sedgemoor in 1685.

The Wagon is from the very clever lads & lasses from Iron Gate Scenery and was a snip at £8!



It is more of a medieval model, so I changed the wheels to look more 17th/18th century which worked well. Check them out if you haven't already, they make some brilliant terrain pieces. I do have a few more bits from them for later in the Challenge.



I did also buy the figures to go with the wagon, but chose to buy another pack from Col Bill, c17th century Prisoners and guard. The three prisoner figures fit well into the wagon as my prisoners. The 2 drivers I believe are both also from Col Bill's Depot Battalion.




After lounging around on Caprica I decided to jump back on Sarah's Star Yacht, with our destination being the wonderful planet Skaro. As payment for my trip I offer up Cate Cramer a c18th century US settler, I'm sure Cate will fit in with my other civilians for King Philips War.






Cate is another of Col Bills, Belt Fed Gaming Novelty Girls and like  Becky Burton in my previous post is a snip at £3.35.

Points mean prizes so lets work out how many....

5 x 25mm figures - 25pts
Wagon 1 x 28mm vehicle - 20pts
Caprica/Doomed Bonus - 20pts

Cate Cramer 1 x 25mm - 5pts
Sarah's Star Yacht - 20pts

90 points?
