AHPC11 - Donnybrook - Jacobite's and their Flags

 


I think I have a problem?
Yes, I do own a secret Scottish Jacobite army for Donnybrook!!!
But I had no standard bearers, so.........


Cameron of Lochiel's a Redoubt figure


Another Cameron flag, this time a Reiver Casting figure.


Another Reiver Casting carrying the McDonald of Clanranald flag


Finally a Reiver figure carrying the St Andrews Cross


All the brilliant flags come from that giant of a flag maker Sir Iain of McDonald at  Flags of War


Here we have a Warlord figure representing Alisdair 'The Devastator' Mac Colla

From Warlord
"This is Warlord's take on perhaps the most dangerous man in the British Isles at the time...Alasdair MacColla "The Devastator", a man who went by many names, some rarely used out loud! This legendary Highland warrior came from the Isles and grew famous for his startling strength, size and ferocity..."

Most of my Scottish force are Redoubt figures, which a on the larger side of large, so this Warlord figure fits is really well, he'll be used as a character or commander.


So 4 x 25mm figures will add a further 25 points to my total.

    1. Wish I did Eric! They're from Flags of War, for their 1745 range, but hey they'll do for me! There's a link to their site above.

  4. I always feel that a unit is not finished until it's ready to wave it's flags, and they look great.

  9. Fab flags! I do love the Flags of War ranges - they really make an impact on the table. The Warlord figure of the Devastator certainly has an impressive chopper - surely a chance of instant decapitation for anyone in combat with him?! 😆
