After a long hiatus from writing about crafting wooden soldiers Matt Kirkhart has joined me on my blog Wooden Warriors (https://wooden-warriors.com) to showcase his work in crafting wooden fantasy figures, dungeon tiles, and accessories. Hopefully this will only be the first of many articles on how he crafts his … crafts. Here is a taste:

That isn't the same Matt who ran an ancients game with wooden figures (Egyptians v Hittites I think) at a historicon like 6 or so years ago? |

Grignotage, yes I do believe he ran that game. He and John Acar ran Zama with wooden soldiers in 2012 at Cold Wars. I ran a wooden DBA army at that same convention. |

Sorry I botched the link Black Cavalier. |

How cool is that?
Love those skellies! |

Very cool! If I lost all my figures in a disaster I think this would be the direction I'd go in. |

That isn't the same Matt who ran an ancients game with wooden figures (Egyptians v Hittites I think) at a historicon like 6 or so years ago? Dale is correct. We did do Zama several years ago…2012! Time flies! And Matt did the Egyptians as well as successors starting a couple of years before that. And Dale's Wooden DBA army was a sight to behold! Really well done! |

Thanks John. I really liked your Carthaginians too. I was just looking over the pictures on the blog the other day. |

I remember also trying out a French INdochina game with Matt, which got me into that period. Quite the dangerous gamer! |

I really liked your Carthaginians too. I was just looking over the pictures on the blog the other day. That was quite a fun game! I was particularly impressed with how Matt's rules handled Roman line relief. |

For those who are interested, the game at Barrage went very well, I had a great group of players. Three folks who I already knew and three new people who were wonderful. It's funny, Buck was letting me know that my target audience of kids should be finishing up a "giant ape" game (which looked very cool by the way!) in time to get in on my Craftee Dungeon Quest game with these figures. I did get a full house of 6 players, but every single one was an adult. Ha, ha! Thanks everyone for the positive comments. As usual, go to Dale's blog to get the most recent stuff, including a brief after action report of the Barrage game I ran with these little guys. |
replaces his Dwarf army… sort of.
