Battle of Changping ( Part 1)
2006 Curteys Miniatures Demo game.
All figures are from the 28mm
Warring States and Han Chinese ranges by Curteys Miniatures
I was trawling through photos of some of our past demo games and thought it would be a good idea to do a series of blogs showing the games as a series of photos.

Wow - fantastic game and figures! Just when I thought I had little to no interest in the period too! Dean
ReplyDeleteGood to see you going back to your roots so's to speak guys.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking demo, will it be making it's way to Salute? Maybe something similar?

Thanks guys, for salute this year we are putting on a 28mm WW2 game using figures from our 1st Corps range.
ReplyDeleteCheck out the 1st corps blog for some details.
Great to hear that you're putting on a demo for Salute. I, as usual, will be found hovering around the Lance and Longbow stand as I'm commited to helping George out with his Grandson game.
DeleteNo doubt you'll see me at you stand though :O)
