A supply train leaves regularly from Ottenheim for Vanderhof. Here we see it on route, it is protected by a company of garrison troops and some jagers.
A closeup look at the pack mules and horses (these are the ones I converted from some toy horses and donkeys - http://tidders-kingdomofwittenberg.blogspot.com/2009/08/40mm-pack-ponies-and-mules-conversion.html).

Such a pleasant sight -as always!
An aspect of warfare too often neglected - and a propitious opportunity for some 'ambush' skirmish game?
Hello there Allan,
Agreed! A rousing sight indeed. And your converted pack mules look mighty imoressive too.
Best Regards,
Stokes
an excellent little set of figures! Like many, I suspect, I rather neglect such support elements. They can be a great source of scenarios and ideas, can't they?

A wonderful supply train. It would be a real shame if anyone were to attack it.

Yes, a splendid bit of modelling and adapting, as always. :-)
Cheers,

Good job, of course.
But mostly,
I'm jealous of a somebody who has enough space to game with 40mm figures!
LOL

Wargaming with 40mm figs doesn't require that much more space, the infantry 'footprint' is about the same although cavalry take up more space. Most Scenery is re-useable, but bigger buildings are needed. I tend to use the 40mm for 'skirmish games'.
Brigands abound on the route from Ottenheim to Vanderhof - we shall see if the supply train arrives without incident.

Great conversion work. 40mm figures do look splendid.
