Finished off a few selections of Orcs and things for use in an 18th Century campaign.

linkNote that I have modified the painting style for the Orcs along the way. First batch was green with traditional highlighting – quite time consuming, and not that effective. Second batch is green with woodgrain stain – much simpler at this scale.
This campaign is predominantly Seven Years War linear warfare, with minor witchcraft involved. Whilst the bulk of the armies fight in a civilised and enlightened fashion, it is possible in the campaign terms to bring in allied forces based on HoTT armies.
Civilised warfare is conducted using pretty much vanilla ATKM rules. When civilised units contact Barbaric units (such a 24AP incursion of Orcs such as these), then the line regiments, cavalry and artillery are translated into HoTT elements for combat.
Yet to get up to that point on the table, but thats the theory anyway – should be like playing 2 separate games at once on the same table.
Anyway, hope you enjoy looking at the Orc hordes – several more HoTT armies on the way to invade this 18th C campaign :)
