I am still in the process of purchasing and building some Warhammer Empire baggage trains to go along with my armies. I had some difficulty tracking down any retro GW minis on Ebay, and I found it even harder to track down any of the older GW baggage wagons.

So I ended up falling back on two of Fenryll's supply wagons, they make an excellent general purpose one and also a wagon that is hauling a giant beer keg. Fenryll's wagons would work great for either an Empire baggage train or a dwarven one.

I also came across this miniatures company called Lead Adventure.

I picked up these excellent figures from their site. They are technically supposed to be revolting peasants, but the way they are marching along with their weapons and shovels slung over their shoulders, they make perfect personalities for a baggage train. From the looks of the set you get a choice of weapons or tools, including pitch forks and shovels.

The other set I picked up was supposed to be dwarven miners, the set is titled "Tunnel Guards", but I thought the guy carrying the lantern looked like a guide at night who might be leading supply wagons along some old road. Plus the fact they are carrying pick axes, they look like they could be accompanying some sort of supply train.

I really like the look of these minis and am exploring the site further. But I think these will fit in well with any Warhammer army.

Excellent. There's not enough fluff in Fantasy and SF games anyway. I also like your choice of miniatures.
