    I love the look of the old empire stuff so much. I used to play a smattering of GW stuff back around 2005-ish, but only recently got back into wargaming, thanks to Dragon Rampant. I also had a box of old minis, and managed to put together a few small warbands for it. Then i ended up filing out a new army with a bunch of empire stuff (handgunners and similar).
    Anyways, I look forward to seeing more, Cheers!

    Awesome! My favorite army. Mine is pretty big and still has a lot in the wings as well. I’ve gone generic Landsknecht for the majority of the army.

    • @battleknights9636
      @battleknights9636  2 года назад +1

      Noice 😎 .... is it all painted ? And what colour/ province scheme did you go for ?

    • @ninjamania
      @ninjamania 2 года назад +1

      The vast majority is painted. Colors are mainly a mixed variety as per historical Landsknecht armies with a couple of color-matched units.
      I also have a couple of Dogs Of War units in there.
      I have mostly Oldhammer and a couple of newer plastic units left to paint, but those are waiting until after I finish my Wood Elves/Forest Spirits and my small Nurgle demons armies.

    Lovely stuff! I started in 1st edition but never got beyond 3rd Edition WFB before my 30 year break from gaming, so all my old fantasy armies predate your gorgeous Germanic looking Empire - my human army was basically a 14th Century English army from Essex Miniatures (mounted knights, foot knights, men at arms, spearmen, longbows and crossbows) with a unit of Ogre mercenaries thrown in. But I had Orcs, Goblins and Dwarves as well, and my friend had a fairly decent Chaos army. I've still got my old armies, I mostly use them now for Dragon Rampant and hope to use them for Warlords of Erehwon if I can get a game!

      @@battleknights9636 Back in the day it was mainly Dwarves but Goblins were always a favourite too. I quickly moved on to Historical gaming as my local club didn't do any Games Workshop. They played WRG 6th and 7th editions, headache inducing rules. Today I'm very keen on Dragon Rampant, have an undead army and a Dwarf and Goblin on the hobby table, but way too many things on the to do list; Silver Bayonet, Kill Team, Bolt Action the list goes on..... and on.

    Beautiful army. My averlanders are a far cry from the beauty of yours. Maybe look at eBay and bitz resellers for your fourth demigryph. Furthermore I wanted to add that the sun on the banner of Averland was put there since the arrival of the nobles of the destroyed province of Solland. The original had a block cross and a superposed hammer as emblem (source: uniforms and heraldry of the Empire)
