Troy rocks! (and also some Trojan archers)
Continuing to flesh out my Trojan contingents, I finished up a couple of archers to join with Helenos and his warriors.
I've also been working on a bit more terrain - this time some rocky outcrop obstructions. Using rocks picked up on a walk, I did the most wargamery thing possible and painted the rocks, to look like rocks. I think they work rather well!
I wanted to have an aesthetic difference between my Trojans and any future Achaeans, so I didn't want to go for Minoan/Mycenaean archers and instead stuck with Eureka Miniatures. Rather than the clean-shaven nudie boys of the Late Bronze Age Greeks, I decided to bend the rules slightly and pick up some Chaldeans. They are not of the same sculpting quality as the LBA Greeks, but with the same painting, colour scheme and basing, they do the trick and fit right in.

Meanwhile, the first complete draft of the rules is ready and undergoing a first proof before playtesting begins in earnest.
