Cracking sculpts, and they've painted up really well. <br /><br />The Witchfinder rules aren't something I'm familiar with (Stu knows them, I believe), so I might look into them a bit and see what possibilities there is with them ... Anything is better than painting the nudey figures for Stu (the novelty wore off fast, tbh). And the TMP arguments get me down a touch.<br /><br />I'll pass on your praise to Stu, when I'm working on Friday. Thanks for that. I did actually mention that I'd been talking to a fellow blogger who'd been painting and displaying some C17th civilians of the Depot Battalion (meaning yourself), so I can finally confirm who I was talking about when I tell him it was the chap with this weeks Gypsies. <br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-43042405454795835962017-11-22T10:23:13.201+00:002017-11-22T10:23:13.201+00:00Anything that has vampires in it immediately attra...Anything that has vampires in it immediately attracts my attention. I'm not familiar with your vampire and vampire hunter figures but that's probably because of the period they're supposed to be from. Suffice to say, I'll be following this project with keen interest even if I do know so little about the setting and rules you're using.

Courageous Witchfinders battle against the many vile abominations that plague a once green and pleasant land. Clandestine vampire factions secretly strive to gain ultimate power over a deceived nation. Cruel barguests create fear and mayhem across town and country. Evil witchcraft is rife; vicious werewolves savage the innocent and crazed noctelinger hunt in the shadows." - but I'll also be trying out Ganesha Games 'Fear & Faith' rules in the same setting, just to see which I prefer :-)The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-75962778235252449712017-11-21T23:19:35.298+00:002017-11-21T23:19:35.298+00:00They were certainly worth waiting for Michael, and...They were certainly worth waiting for Michael, and the good news is that the 'follow-up' order isn't going to take anything like as long to arrive :-)The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-42931499853085623612017-11-21T23:17:16.179+00:002017-11-21T23:17:16.179+00:00Many thanks Simon.
