Just finished my 10mm Siege Tower

Started this new year by pulling out my old 10mm Crusades project.
I'm basing almost everything for Warmaster, but I'm going to make
some nice movement trays so that I can challenge Bob's figs in a game of Impetus.
The figures are by Irregular and the Tower is scratchbuilt.

First Basing for my Franco-Prussian War Project

Plan : to build a 1000 figure Franco-Prussian War Project.

The main aim is to build a large force with which to play 'They Died for Glory'. But I also wanted to play '1870' and 'Volley and Bayonet'.
Played around with the basing for a bit before I had something visually appealing and that would work with three rulesets. I changed the basing for 'They Died for Glory', and went with 40x25mm bases, French with 4figs to a base and the Germans with 5figs to a base. 4 stands represents a battalion in TDFG.

For the '1870' rules three stands will represent a regiment.



To use the figures for Volley and Bayonet I had to get a bit more creative. Using 3x3in foamboard I cut small inserts for the 40x20mm bases. I think they turned out quite nice.
One 3x3in stand equals a regiment in the rules.
