Dwarf Baggage Train

Most of the armies must have a baggage train (some don't, e.g. the Skaven, as they carrs their subsistence on them). I have already painted a baggage train for my Orcs and Goblins army. Now it's the Dwarfs' turn.

My baggage train is a big one, mostly composed of Dwarf civilians I own for a long time. You will notice the famous Bugman's cart. It will follow my Dwarf army to provide its thirsty warriors with fresh and excellent beer. Actually, there is another beer cart in the baggage train. This one is driven by a young and nice barmaid that could be serving beer at the Oktober Fest. The Dwarfs should have enough beer for the first weeks (or days?) of the campaign. This cart is manufactured by Red Bard Games.

Another cart (also from Red Bard Games) will join the train. This is a tiny house (maybe the general of the army's quarters) on the back of a Highlands cow.

The Dwarfs also need to repair their weapons and armours after each battle. So a mobile forge will be following the army. This miniature is a plastic one coming from a recent Citadel set. The forge is nornally pulled by a horse, but I don't have it.

Finally, a pack mule from Wargames Foundry will be carrying lots of things on its back.

Dwarf Sappers

They work in team of two models and you can have twelve of them in your Dwarf army. They are the sappers. What can they do? They can build stockades (counts as hard cover and defended obstacle) at a rate of 1" per team member per turn. They can also build bridges, also at a rate of 1" per team member per turn, the bridge is 1 1/2" wide. And finally, they can demolish walls, buildings and other constructions.

Very useful indeed. 

These miniatures are all from the golden age of Citadel.
