Energetic Hill Martians with halberds (known there as "coddling-choppers"). Notice the coin for scale. It's always hard for me to remeber that these are 15mm figures.
Hill Martian women with coddling-choppers. When a nomad encampment is attacked, everyone picks up a weapon and lends a hand.

Judging by his gear and his weaponry, I'd say we have a Hill martian war chief here.
Here is a painted grouping of the British Wilderness Adventurers.
And, of course, the American Wilderness Adventurers.
As always, very nice stuff, Rod.
Originally, coddling-choppers were two-handed swords. Have they changed, or is that a mistake?
ReplyDeleteYou know, you're right! That's what comes of writing from memory. Coddling-choppers were indeed two-handed swords.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it was the Canal Martians who called them that. Who knows what Hill Martians used the term for. (How's that for fancvy footwork?)
