Finished my first of 4 IG Cav units.  This is a detachment from the 11th IG Cav Rgt, known as the Black Horse ...

And if any of you wondered why I chose the 11th ...     David Drake is my fav Sci-fi author(Hammer's Slammers) who served with 11th ACR in SE Asia ...

Is that you L4 or just some random dude that looks remotely like Hugh Hefner?

Excellent work btw

Wow, I really like that "flying V" formation for a base of cavalry models!

Well done, L4!

And I quite like Drake's writing as well.

Now living in Boston... any EPIC players want to meet up?

Nice   I'm tempted to base some of my own like that now too.

How does it work for unit/cas purposes?

Lovely formation nonetheless.

Thanks Boyz !  Yes, I love Drake's Slammers and Ranks of Bronze. There really is no problem for gaming purposes, basing them on larger bases.  Also, we still used the old SM1 rule where IG CAV or Bikes can dismount. But I've charged Chaos Juggers successfully before too ...

Exactly as normal? They look to the same 40x20mm bases GW supply with cavalry these days, they're just mounted going the other way on them. The rulebook states cavalry to be based, 2-4 but no one will care as the base size is the important thing. These should be easier to get more into combat too as their frontal base size is less.

Yes, and those are Warmaster Bases. But I think they come with Epic Cav now, IIRC ...
