Title: Post-Mongol Samurai
Post by: c.avidiuscassius on January 15, 2012, 10:59:40 PM

Some pics of my Samurai used at the MK Onedayer on Saturday.

They didn't do too badly considering....

First some of the mounted CvO/AxO.

Samurai archers. As iBwS, pretty potent but rather clumsy....

Not quite in period, but everyone with Samurai has a regiment of Ii...

Monks. Key fighters in both games. In one game they were shot down in droves by Art(I) and Bw(I), in the other they suffered the ignomy of being beaten by CvI charging uphill in difficult going... The Buddha wasn't with them that day.

All figures are from Two Dragons, except the monks around the Mikoshi - who are the new Peter Pig figures. The Mikoshi (portable shrine) is a converted Monopoly Hotel...

Definitely not game winners. Both boats sunk in the first game and too scared to advance into artillery range in the second.

Probably more importantly, I should have found a better use for 2FE of terrain than a river. But I just had to use boats...

Lovely stuff.

I may have done the right thing getting one of these armies myself after all :)

Beautiful figures will look at 2 Dragons for some. What was your OOB like?
