So you've all heard me talk about re-doing the Empire army of our friends and very likely never seen any progress on it. Well I finally got done re-building the big Spear unit. It started out as 20 Halberd's and 20 Spearmen with command models, but as every single tip of every weapon was broken I had to replace them. With no place on the net that I could find replacement Halberd's I went with Spears since I already had a ton of Pikes for a Dogs of War army I was going to do once upon a time. I have to repaint them and finish building the custom bases for the unit to end up on later but I thought I'd help myself by showing the progress.
Note that these are the older models, 5th or 6th edition I'm not sure, but they are a fair bit smaller than the current models produced by GW. I had to drill out every hand on every model except the musician. Now you know what took so long. Sheesh...

you can buy wire pikes from a lot of historical dealers .think they are round a 100mm or 120mm something like that .but be warned iv played english civil war games with loads of pike and those feckers can get you in the hand dead easy lol
That's why I titled the post 'Dead Pokey' becuase yeah, they are dangerous. LOL! Just look at 'em; ready to stab some poor Warhammer Player.
Did you find a place to buy the lion shields? I only have the 15 or so that came in 6th (I think) box set and can't find them anywhere
No, I didn't. I wish I had, but those are just the shields that were left with the amry.
