28 mm Impetus Turnier auf der Worean Con im Herbst

Hi everybody. Yes I plan to come again with some friends from Italy. Last year it was very nice!

Just a quick suggestion if you are looking for a fast to paint army in 28mm: The Teutonic Order.
The list is in the rulebook and it very expensive in points.

With the new tournament rules at 300pts you have to halve the maxima so you can field only 2 Teutonic Knight Units but their cost is 90 pts, so a 1/3 of the army.
Keeping the list as cheaper and with few figures as possibile you can add 4 Crusader Knights (116pts), 1 compulsory Knechte (16pts), 1 compulsory Livonian Horse Archers (27pts), 1 compulsory Turkopolen (19pts), command structure (12pts) and an Average leader (20pts) and you have 300pts.

Knights can be take from plastic range by FireForge.

Hi Lorenzo,

I really do hope I get a chance to meet you there. :)

To add to your Teutonic Order pitch I\'ll further say this army is pretty effective at 28mm. ;)

Bring whatever army you like, as long as you join the tournament! :D
Instead of Great Italian Wars you could choose the earlier version and use the Perry WotR-Boxes, at least the MAA are not that time-consuming to paint!
(although the infantry might be a different cattle of fish)

BTW 28 mm seems to be much more popular for Impetus in Germany, an to be honest, if you want to interest new players a nicely painted 28 mm army does the trick much better than those tiny 15 mm gnomes they\'ll use in the FOG tournament next door :sm_pirate_devil:

I do both scales and I don\'t completely agree with that statement. It\'s your opinion that more play 28mm in Germany, but our entire group plays 15mm and some 28mm for Impetus.
It is true a 28mm army does looks better then a 15mm army ........if it\'s painted very nice that is, otherwise you easily see a badly painted one and then that looks much worse then an equally badly painted 15mm. ;)
15mm gives you an army appearance better then 28mm IMHO because you still retain enough detail to see the figures while still giving the effect of mass as more figures are used and in smaller area.
15mm armies are easier to complete and still look good while 28mm takes quite a bit longer to do if want to maintain good standards.
As Impetus has improved the look of 28mm armies it also has improved the look of 15mm armies as well and a nicely based and painted 15mm looks great and shouldn\'t be dismissed as you can do quite a bit with it with Impetus basing unlike the regimented FOG basing you were mentioning.
I was just commenting 15mm is easier to build and truth be told also plays more \"fair\" then the 28mm version as the movement to table size suggestions given in the rulebook for 28mm are too small.
All that said I\'m open to both scales and happily play either one as I\'m a fan of both! :D

Hello Christopher,

no offence meant! :blush2:

I like playing and especially painting 15 mm very much, in fact I usually only play and paint 15 mm, also for Impetus!
But after having not that many Impetus players for the 15 mm tournament last year, we decided to have a try in 28 mm this time. :D

It just seems like Impetus is the ideal excuse for doing something in 28 mm without having to mortgage your house, and also an ideal excuse for finally succumbing to the need to buy some boxes of all the new fantastic plastic stuff, like the Fireforge knights Lorenzo mentioned (no, I must be strong!).
