I had them used against my Carthaginians once, but I forget what army used them. They missed. |
Sysiphus | 25 Jan 2013 9:57 p.m. PST |
Used them in a DBMM refight of Pyrrhus vs. Camillan Romans. The Command they were part of became disheartened and they disappeared! |
Grelber | 25 Jan 2013 10:18 p.m. PST |
No, but when I first saw them mentioned, I had to go through the WRG army lists until I found out who did use them. Grelber |

I have some plastic ones, but never built the army. |
Der Alte Fritz | 25 Jan 2013 10:26 p.m. PST |
I hear that they were once at Ayton. |

An ally used them once in the 70s. believe at least half ran back into his army :0 Double edged sword ! |

Have a herd of them for Mid Republic Rome in an anti-Elephant roll. Classic Hack had a rule for them. VR James Mattes |

I've sold lot of ours so someone is using them. Mike |
Lee Brilleaux | 26 Jan 2013 8:08 a.m. PST |
I have never used them in a wargame, and the time I used them in a job interview was a bit of a fiasco. That was what my defence lawyer said, anyway, but the judge was harsher about it. |
darthfozzywig | 26 Jan 2013 8:51 a.m. PST |
May have called someone that in a wargame a long time ago, but haven't used one. |

Enactors do it regularily when the hog roast catches fire. Probably worth asking Murphy

We prefer the term "flamboyantly dresses chauvinists", thank you very much. |

Ayton's green and pleasant fields have indeed resounded to the thunder of sooty trotters. It was like the scene in 'ConAir' where they look out the back of the plane and see the car being towed through the air: "On any other day, that might seem strange." |
Martin Rapier | 26 Jan 2013 11:06 a.m. PST |
No, I can't say I have. I do have some 20mm goats with no obvious application. Flaming goats?? |

Flamming Old Goats? Culling of the Gray Beards? |
Martin Rapier | 26 Jan 2013 1:23 p.m. PST |
Hmm, I can see I'm going to have make a flaming pigs psiloi stand. For some reason I'd imagined them being cheerful Glouchester Old Spot type porkers rather than warthogs. |
Who asked this joker | 26 Jan 2013 1:41 p.m. PST |
No but I eat pork BBQ at Cold Wars every year I go. |
Maddaz111 | 26 Jan 2013 3:20 p.m. PST |
war hogs not warthogs yes, I have seen them on the table, but like all very unusual troops I always think they are over rated by rules systems. |
Toshach | 26 Jan 2013 7:39 p.m. PST |
Not in a miniatures game, but I loved them in Rome:Total War. As often as not though, they'd panic and head straight at my own cavalry. |
Sergeant Paper | 26 Jan 2013 7:46 p.m. PST |
Flaming Pigs, flaming Cows, an whole Flaming Orchestra one time
but that was in Call of Cthulhu. Actually, no flaming animals myself, though my brother had some for his ancients (Sassanids, maybe?). |

Flaming pigs can panic? Who knew??? |
CraigSpiel | 27 Jan 2013 10:14 a.m. PST |
I used them in Pig Wars. I recall that Irregular made them. |
