Wir beschäftigen uns mit der Faszination des Wargamings und ergründen, was insbesondere Männer an diesem Thema hängen bleiben lässt.
Hartmut von Kronberg
This unit was painted for our Club´s presentation during Tactica 2013. It depicts the german knight Hartmut von Kronberg who earned money with robbery in the Area of Frankfurt am Main and Darmstadt. The basing is again for Impetus, Miniatures are designed by Perry Miniatures. The lances are flexible and were hand made by me. All banners were printed out and painted over. The tent was designed by me, I used various materials to design the master. This is actually …
Container and Boxes for SciFi
During Tactica 2013 (see my Tactica image gallery on our club page here) I bought some very nice boxes and a container from Pardulon Models. For years I searched a reason for buying some of this great stuff but I lacked a gaming system which fitted. Pardulon provides models for Fantasy in WH style, for post apocalyptic games, for modern settings and for SciFi settings. None of them are played right now. However I started to play the RPG Shadowrun …
…und die Moral von der Geschicht.
Wenn Krieg gespielt wird geschieht das in manchen Fällen mit einem latent schlechten Gewissen. Wir erörtern, warum das so ist und was man dagegen tun kann.
Frankfurter Schule
Wir erklären, wie wir uns die Etikette am Spieltisch vorstellen, warum das Frankfurter Schule heißt und geben Tipps zum effizienten Bemalen.
Hungarian Bofors, Hetzer and Field Kitchen
Actually this is one of the first finished armies on unfinished armies. The last two units I wanted to paint are the hungarian Bofors and a second objective. After collecting hungarians for now three years I finished my mid war hungarians with the core troops for a Lorried Infantry company and Tank company. The hungarian Bofors for mid war need to get an head swap with the german or hungarian heads available from Battlefront. Meanwhile there are Bofor Anti Air …
Heavy Patrician Cavalry Weiß von Limpurg
For completing my Impetus Tournament army I painted another element of heavy cavalry. I have chosen a patrician family from Frankfurt Weiß von Limpurg and added many banners. The smaller banners were inspired by Frank Becker´s Lannister knights. The smaller banners were a fun to model. This time I modeled my own lances using plastic bristles from brooms with greenstuff added for the hand guards. These are flexible which is very important for transport and gaming. During the Tournament …
Interview with Lorenzo Sartori
Get to know the author of Impetus, during the Woreancon in Germany 2012. Please apologize the disturbing mobile phone sounds.
Norman conquering infantry for SAGA
I rebased these norman infantry with kite shields in order to build the backbone of my SAGA warband. Unfortunately the battleboard focusses on bowmen and cavalry, what a pity that I have so much spearmen. But on the other hand I have beautiful miniatures to take pictures with. During finalizing these miniatures the worst case of all painters took place: I took by accident the paint can instead of the varnish can. After that mistake I reduced the brown spray …
Knights of Kronberg – The Donkey Charge
Our Club´s annual presentation for this year´s Tactica Hamburg was the Feud of Kronberg, a medieval local conflict between Frankfurt and nearby living Knights of Kronberg. During the Battle of Eschborn 1389 the Kronberg Knights led a charge in against the troops of Frankfurt. There is a myth around this battle. It was told that one of the knights lost his destrier and desparetly searched for a mount in the area. Unfortunately he was only able to find a donkey …
