Two buntai for Ronin!

Huh? I hear you think. Here are the subtitles: a buntai apparently is a small unit of warriors in late medieval Japan and Ronin is the Osprey skirmish game I have yet to play for the first time but already have made a ridiculous amount of stuff for...

Below are my first two painted buntai: sohei (warrior monks) and bandits. Buildings at the back are a scratchbuilt shinto shrine and Tori gate and a free papercraft download.






The bushi buntai (samurai and ashigaru) is next in line! Stay tuned...

  2. Beautiful as ever, I still have heaps of Zvezda Samurai lying around... You know there's a DUCO coming up might be nice to play this Ronin there?

  7. Next club night sounds fine by me. I am working toward a ninja-attack-mansion scenario or something based on 47 Ronin as soon as I have finished my mansion. I think these rules really shine in scenario based games.
