Midgard : Britannia (Warriors)

And with this base, the last of the units based for Midgard have been completed. Ten more standard plastic warriors ready for more forays in Britannia. Actually, a little aside here, there were only nine figures to paint as one had already been completed back when I originally worked on the Celts when I first bought the box sets many moons ago.

The Fourth Base of Warriors

Celtic figures based for Midgard (106 of 106 completed)...

  • 4 bases of standard warriors (40 plastic figures)
  • 2 bases of elite warriors (20 - a base each of plastic and metal figures)
  • 2 bases of slingers (8 metal figures)
  • 1 base of female warriors (10 metal figures)
  • 2 bases of archers (8 metal figures)
  • 2 bases of mounted warriors (8 metal/plastic figures)
  • 2 bases of skyclad warriors (8 metal figures)
  • 1 base of hounds (4 metal figures)

Other Celtic figures that have been prepped (0 of 21 completed)...

  • Leaders and Champions (6 metal figures)
  • 1 base of druids (4 metal figures)
  • Mounted warriors (2 metal/plastic figures)
  • Chariots and crew (3/6 metal figures)
And the remainder...
  • 34 Standard and elite warriors still on their sprues (plastic figures)
  • 8 Javelinmen (metal figures)
  • 2 Slingers (metal figures)

As I have been looking at these figures more and more recently, I want to play many more games with them. I have already mentioned a potential Five Leagues warband set in my fantasy world of ancient Doggerland, along with another Romans versus Britons mash-up, but I am also seeing these warriors as potential Dunlendings from Lord of the Rings. Don't know why but that could make for an interesting foray into Middle Earth as a Battle Company or SoBH warband.
