Hobgoblin Rampant

The first miniatures of the year roll off the production line (well, the kitchen table) in the form of another 20 Aly Morrison Hobgoblins. These maniacal little sneaks will eventually be a third of the Hobgoblin infantry strength in the army. I've been doing them in dribs and drabs since the start of the year (you know what going back to work is like) and it's nice to a solid chunk of figures under my belt in January.

Much to the amusement of my wife i decided to arrange the current army out on the table and see how they look. I think I've got enough to game with now. I just need to start looking at getting more variety squeezed in.

While i was at it, i thought i'd have a look at how I could arrange the figures for playing Dragon Rampant. As you are no doubt aware, DR, requires units in 6's or 12's so after a quick shuffle.

This is how they look. 1 unit of 12 half orcs (Light foot), 1 unit of 12 orc archers (light missiles), 3 units of 12 hobgobs (bellicose foot), 1 unit of 6 black orcs (elite foot), 1 troll (lesser war beasts)

Next up is some cavalry, the boss and maybe some artillery!
