For this 15 mm set up, I have these real cutesy-wutesy tiny, 4 mm across, dice. I used them for each figure when I play Beer & Pretzles Space Marines. You can see them here: Though, I only add the dice to the figure once it takes a hit.

Finally got the other three units done: The first unit I did, I noticed a bit of space in the middle. Since I didn't use the little chappies with the spears, I re-purposed them to be standard bearers, or as the Goblins call them " Wavy things" - The Goblins aren't that very artistic, nor understand the real concept of flags, standards and so on, just that most regiments and armies seem to have. So, they tend to use anything they can find, especially if they can get their little paws on a ready one. If the end, three of the units have seventeen figures and one eighteen. Only two more to go: Both mounted knights, one unit of Good Guys, the other Bad Boys.

Nearly finished the Knights of the Realm. I had a look through the Horde collections for something suitable for the mounted Dark Knights, from the Download pages, but couldn't find anything. In fact, there aren't many mounted figures at all - which leads to me suspect that drawing horses may be a bit more challenging that humand(oid) figures. So, I hope this helps: How to draw a horse Next stop Wargames Vault...

Here is the complete GOLDEN ALLIANCE: To recap which figures I have used:
To complete the UNHOLY BLIGHT, I need humany-looking mounted figures for the Dark Knights, as all the other units are non-human. I might end up modifying some regular mounted figures. Let's see how it goes.

I did toy with the idea of making shields with designs on, but to be honest, while the camera can pick up the fine details, my eyes aren't that good! Seriously, look, even at about 43% of original size, you can still see the expressions on their little faces:

Finally! I have the Dark Knights. Messed up a bit. I printed them up, stuck them onto typical cereal-box card and cut them out. When I went to take pictures of the rest of the Unholy Blight army, I found I had already printed them up and stuck them to better, thinner but stiffer card. Also, they came out very dark, too dark to 2½D, as I can't see the edges to cut out detailed bit. Anyway, I shall use the based ones for now. After several versions, I settled on squirmydad's Wraith rider. One, I used my horse and altered the riders position, to match the horse and on another, I mirrored the image, but altered it so that rider was still right-handed. However, at 15mm and on the printer I used, you can't really see it much. I can post the file, if old squirmydad doesn't mind. They now complete the Unholy Blight and both armies are ready to rumble! The Unholy Blight Gentlemen, I want a fair fight, no kicking, biting, gouging of eyes or foul language...

Great work man!!!! I want to see the battle now:D Soon, youngling, soon... But, a quick re-cap as to the figures used:
I'm aiming to get a battle in by the end of the week - I've got this week and next as holiday, so the I need to clear our storeroom. It's not big, but what is in there I have no idea, I'll probably need a decent level fighter, magic user and thief for company... If I'm not heard from within a week, raise a tankard of mead and sing a raunchy song for me!
