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.

The Red Bard Alternative

Some time ago I've been looking for Gruntas and Snortas to add cavalry units to my Orcs and Goblins army. I managed to get some from the well known auctions site, but not enough. And I didn't want to go over a certain price. 

Then, I found - I don't remember how - some Orcs riding boars on the site of a new Spanish miniatures manufacturer: Red Bard Games. While visiting their site, I was surprised to see that they've also produced an Orc riding a War Wyvern, an Orc shaman riding a boar and a complete O/G baggage train. I found also a pair of nice Ogres and two Dwarf carts. Then, recently, they've also added a Gob shaman riding a Cockatrice and three Gob Fanatics. Last but not least, they have also procuced a Daemon Asscannon! 

All of these minis are a more than good alternative for old school miniatures. Their size, their look, their attitude are just perfect and fit well with the rest of my army. They are 3D printed in resin, easy to assemble and with no mould lines.

Here are some I have just painted.
