Defence Against Horse BLB2

Hi Barry, The dah rule seems to work very well when a unit is being charged, but is there anything to stop it being formed in advance using a form. i.e. Preparing in advance of a possible charge on the unit. I note the unit in this formation of course can't move and has reduced fire power. Had a Jac...

One for Barry - Varnish

I don't use anything else.. would definitely not use a spray varnish of any kind.
Barry do you use this over a gloss, or just it's own?

I have tried and got a sheen even with a hair drier, but was trying over a gloss.

Thanks for your help on getting the images inbeded in posts, got there in the end. :D

Nice work, the units look like they mean business!

Sorry to see the varnish reaction to damp air, I find varnishing the worst bit of putting a unit together, hours of hard work can be wasted if it's not right. :x

Thks for the comments Barry, I ordered the vast bulk of my Irish from Dixon, they are nice figures, at the time the only semi complete range for the wars, and I my intention was to use Reiver for the odd differant unit. After painting these chaps I wish I had gone with them from the start! :cry: One...

BLB Rule Issues

Barry, Could I put forward a suggestion that a "frequently asked questions and answered page\info sheet" be put together for BLB. I think the rules are great, and have resulted in me selling off most of my 15mm armies to get big in 25/28mm using BLB but there seems to be a number of players like mys...

Forming Irish Jacobite Army - Help

I am forming a Irish Jacobite Army using Dixon figures for BLB and having a real issue with coat colours and flag details. :? Apart from Sapherson 's William III at War Scotland & Ireland is there any other useful information that anyone is aware of that would give assistance with painting.
