This
was maybe the only themed bonus round I knew what to submit for from
the beginning. Originally I had intended this set for use on a scenic
base for Impetus but as I had it lying untouched on my desk for what
felt like ages the "Last stand" themed round gave me the excuse I needed
to finally paint it. The set is called "Death of Arthur" and is from
Westwind Miniatures nice 28mm Arthurian range.
As
Comitatus didn't show up with their Gripping Beast and Musketeer stuff
at Tactica (Yes, I'm still a little pissed off) I had to cancel my plan
for doing an Impetus sized (and styled) base for lack of miniatures.
Instead I decided to go for a larger round base and maybe use it later
as some kind of rally point or opportunity marker. For the standard I
originally planed to use a more stylish one. It was attached to the pole
already, weathered and battle worn but due to some nasty incident
including glue and me being all fingers and thumbs I had to switch to
this one.
Thanks for viewing and I hope you enjoyed!
