40K...

Not realy 40K, but some times it feels like i´m 40K years old a day like this then I turn 40...

I have got the singing, brekfast in bed, jumping kids in bed... and some smal gifts, as my big one I cashed in by my Salute tripp in April...

I´m happy to have a lovely wife that knows I love minis so she had gone through the trouble to get me a new SAGA Warband (Gripping Beasts Jomsvikings that are stunningly sculpted by Bill T), some new Saxon tents by Rendera and a couple of DVD´s. 

...the Lego Boat wasn´t for me... but my 3,5 year old son...convenient enought he needed some help to build it;)

The best of gifts, a tripp to London and Salute 2012... I hope I get the chanse to go in 2013 to...

I hope you all will have a nice day where ever you may be, I know I will:) 

Best regards!

Dux Britanniarum Romano-British Warband

Release day of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum !!!

Hope I will get the .pdf file soon... The .pdf file of the rules arriwed at  03:53am :) I have just open the file and at a first glance the layout looks realy good, (only the QRS had a strange white background at a part of the page...) will let you kow my first impressions about the rules as soon as I get some spare time to run it through...

Just to wait for the book and cards to arriwe...

My goal the last week have been to rebase 1 unit (6 minis) a day (and still get lots of time for the family...) until the 30th and the release of the rules. This have given me enough minis for a Romano-British starter army:

Romano-British 
1x Warlord
2x Big Men
1x Champion
1x6 Household
2x6 Warrior
3x6 Levy
1x4 Missile

I will ofcourse also use the minis for Dux Bellorum to:) But for the Dux Bellorum Romano-British starter army I will need some cavalry to...and that will be re-basing step 2 in august just in time fore the release of the Dux Bellorum at august 20th.

Dux Britanniarum Warlord with entourage

Only 1 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum.


Today the Warlord with he´s most loyal followers.

The warbands Champion, The Warlord him self and he´s two right hand men. Sorry for the lousy picture...

NOT the warlords most loyal followers but some missile troops...don´t realy know if they are allowed to have bows, but I hope so:)

Dux Britanniarum Comanipulares unit

Only 2 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum.

Today the elit unit in the warband, the Comanipulares or Household troops. only 6 of them but I suppouse they are good?

Dux Britanniarum Milites unit#2

Only 3 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum.

Second of the two units of Milites/Warriors in a Romano-British starter army.

Dux Britanniarum Milites unit#1

Only 4 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum.

I have finished re-basing the Numeri/Levy, in total 18 minis divided in 3 groups/units. Today I have started to rebase the minis for my 2 Milites/Warrior units.

The minis have some armour and a mix of black and red shields to difference them from the Numeri/Levy.

Dux Britanniarum Numeri unit#3

My third unit to be re-based are the last of 3 groups of Numeri or Levy.

Dux Britanniarum Numeri unit#2

Only 6 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum...

My second unit to be re-based are some more Numeri or Levy.

Dux Britanniarum Numeri unit#1

Sins it´s only 7 days to the release of the TooFatLardies new Arthurian rules Dux Britanniarum I thought I would start to rebase my Romano-British infantry...

I´m actually up in darlecarlia for some holyday and I didn´t bring any minis to paint, just the minis for re-basing...

I will ofcourse also use the minis for Dux Bellorum to:) But for the Dux Bellorum Romano-British starter army I will need some cavalry to...and that will be re-basing step 2 in august just in time fore the release of the Dux Bellorum at august 20th.

My goal this week are to rebase 1 unit (6 minis) a day (and still get lots of time for the family...) until the 30th and the release of the rules. This will give me enough minis for a Romano-British starter army:

Romano-British 
1x Warlord
2x Big Men
1x Champion
1x6 Household
2x6 Warrior
3x6 Levy
1x4 Missile

The first minis to get new round 20mm bases from Warbases are a unit of Numeri or Levy. I suppose my Numeri look a little to well equiped and uniform...but this was the most levy like minis I had painted up... at least they don´t have any armour;)

Dux Britanniarum Map...

It seems like the campaign map included in the up-comming Dux Britanniarum rules from TooFatLardies is realy something extra.

Can´t wait to get my copy... you can read more about the rules at the "Lard Islad News" blog and also see some rulebook pages.
