Who makes the best wagons / civilian / objective pieces for WM?
« on: November 02, 2013, 05:31:06 PM »
I was impressed with the quality of the Kalistra pieces my friend has bought for his Orcs and Goblins.

I've been looking at their Eastern European carts and horses and I think they'd do fine for an escort scenario for Warmaster Fantasy -working as a generic "good" Empire / Elves / Dwarves / Brets item.

Does anyone have any opinions on the matter?

I am also generally interested in being pointed towards "furniture" or "loot" for use in scenarios.  Crates and barrells and chests and so on.   Pendraken have some nice little pieces under their "dungeon furniture" but I wanted more!

A TMP topic suggests:
http://www.musketminiatures.com/

And it does list crates and sacks but has no pictures.

Any suggestions, chaps? :-X

Those kallistra ones look nice, very similar to the Pendraken medieval wagons - although the stowage in the second wagon is only kallistra

In the Pendraken ECW range there are Tumbrel wagons, which are 3 sided wicker wagons, more square based than the kallistra ones. They also have barrels in the Artillery Accessories pack - this is a very handy pack

In the Pendrakan German WWII  range, there is a 4 wheeled covered wagon, that is quite generic. There are also a pack of boxes and sacks - the boxes are probably a bit modern and the sacks aren't too exciting.

As you say the dungeon accessories range has all sorts of useful bits, the crates and treasure piles are particularly useful.

This is the treasure pile and table and chairs to make a paymaster for my dogs of war

Wow! Thanks for your reply, I hadn't found the Pendraken boxes / sacks - see what I mean?  Even if you're browsing a site like that you can miss things so easily without pictures and without knowing what to look for.

Really digging your paymaster. =)

Glad to help.

We have been pestering Leon at Pendraken to but together a generic 'useful stuff' category on their website to list all the bits and pieces hidden away in various ranges, that have much wider application.
