Ostatnimi czasy żaden okres nie poruszył mojej wyobraźni tak mocno, jak feudalna Japonia (poza wojnami z Czerwonoskórymi oczywiście). Kilka partii w Ronina oraz cudowne figurki sprawiły, że naprawdę wsiąkłem. Z niewiadomych mi jednak przyczyn nie wrzucałem na bloga efektów prac. Niniejszym chciałbym nadrobić zaległości i zaprezentować kilku wojowniczych mnichów.
Lately no period has inspired my imagination as much as feudal Japan (except wars with Indians, of course). Several games of Ronin and wonderful miniatures made me really soaked into. However, for unknown reasons I did not published on the blog effects of work. Thereby I would like to catch up and present several warrior monks.

Niniejszy obrazek dedykuję wszystkim, którzy potrafią grać z przymrużeniem oka i czerpać czystą, nieskrępowaną radość ze wspólnej zabawy, a nie tylko rywalizacji między dwoma graczami :)
This picture is dedicated to all those, who are able to enjoy the pure, mutual delight of the gaming, not just a rivalry between two players :)

Muskets & Tomahawks is my favorite wargame recently and I dedicate this project my every moment I could afford. I am truly fascinated by the eighteenth century and I truly enjoy, but sometimes the last thing you want, is painting.

The last post was published a long time ago. This doesn't mean that I've
done nothing since then. There was simply no occasion, sometimes lack
of camera, and even absence of desire to show effects of work. As usual
I've started several projects and it looks like, they won't be finished
soon.
Opisywany w tym wpisie stół jest na szczęście
wyjątkiem :) Zrobiłem go chyba 2 lata temu pod kątem Umbry Turris, stąd
dość nietypowe wymiary: 70x70 [cm] (jakieś 28x28 cali). Kiedy rok
później chciałem go ostatecznie wykończyć zdarzył się mały wypadek:
zatkała mi się farbka Vallejo i zamiast udrożnić kanalik szpilką,
ściskałem buteleczkę na siłę. W końcu cały wkraplacz wyleciał i farba
rozprysła się po całym stole, zostawiając piękne białe smugi. Wydawało
mi się, że stolik pójdzie do śmieci, ale bezpiecznie przeleżał na
zapleczu Wilczej.
Table, described in this entry, is fortunately an exception :) I
made it two years ago for Umbra Turris wargame, hence the rather unusual
dimensions: 70x70 [cm] (about 28x28 inches). One year later I wanted to
ad a final touch and little accident happened: Vallejo paint was choked
and instead of uchok it with a pin, I squeez the bottle with all my
strength. Funnel flew out and paint splashed all over the table, leaving
a beautiful white streaks. It seemed to me that the table will go to
waste, but it safely lay at the back of the Wargamer on Wilcza.

Aby nadać krajobrazowi pola bitwy nieco koloru przydaje się woda. Już jakiś czas temu zabrałem się za małe bajorko. Przyciąłem odpowiedni kawałek tektury i zapiaskowałem brzegi oraz małe fragmenty gruntu na środku. W takim stanie przeleżało to około pół roku.
Water is very usefult to give landscape of the battlefield a bit of color. Some time ago I started making a small puddle. I cut a piece of cardboard and put some sand on edges and small pieces of land in the middle. It's been stored in this state for about half a year.

Next on the workbench were fences. This is probably my favorite part of terrain! They are easy to build, easy to store and transport, hard to damage, don't "overcowd" battlefield, because are small and fit everywhere, add +50 to the look of the table and to tactical capabilities of our forces.

W tej chwili czekamy jeszcze na zamówione figurki. Yoriemu nie wyszedł test Siły Woli i kupił sobie nie planowanych Indian z Conquest'a.
Yori have just said during inauguration of the Mohawks we are going to take some action in a French Indian War in North America (one of the Seven Years War operations theathre - essentially the truly first World War, where the fighting took place in Europe, America and Asia. Extremely interesting time, and probably I will make a few historical posts about it)
At the moment we are waiting for ordered Northstar miniatures. Yori failed Willpower test and bought not planned Indian from Conquest.

I have finished the first Battlegroup of phalangites for the Ptolemaic army for the Field of Glory. Miniatures are from the Old Glory, pikes made from lances of By Fire and Sword. Leaning sarissas look impressive, you can see the pressure on the enemy formation. On the other hand, placing them to fight with other bases is a hell. Especially cavalry have a problem with it.

Równie przydatni będą do czysto Numidyjskiej armii, chociaż występowali w niewielkiej ilości w stosunku do oszczepników. Tradycja łucznicza nie była zbyt rozpowszechniona na zachodzie Morza Śródziemnego.
When Hannibal returned to Africa and clashed with Scypio Africanus at Zama, he put into ranks of his army, some archers of Numidian origin. I decided that I will use them also.
They will be equally useful in pure Numidian army, although they occured in a small number in relation to the javelinmen. The tradition of archery is not common in the west of the Mediterranean.

As I planned expansion of the Carthaginian army, I did not think that I make some urban militia. With the wealth offered by the army; Celtiberians, warriors of the Campania, or even Italiots or Greek mercenaries, seemed to me that I will never make some ordinary citizens of Hadesh cards. :) But I subject the options of battles in Africa, which a key example is Zama, Hannibal's last battle in defense of their native city. Additional option is also a possible war with Persia with the King of Kings Yori. My sprawling empire looks with envy toward the Cyrenaica, and maybe even on the pyramids :)
