The other night I decided to pull out my Gripping Beast extras box and take an inventory. My new plans to convert my WAB Saxon army to a Hail Caesar army made me realize that I just don't have enough figures painted for HC. In particular I am short Coerls. I need LOTS of Coerls! The new Gripping Beast Warriors of the Dark Age plastic figures are really calling my name but before I went out and spent a bunch of money I need to know what I already have.
Turns out this was a prudent idea. I pulled 88 figures out to use as Coerls. These figures are mostly GB Saxon figures with a few of their Ancient Germans mixed in. Basically, a bunch of dudes with big round shields and no armor. This collection will allow me to run either two 40 figure, 4 rank, units or, by swapping out a stand for an extra command, I can run 4 20 figure, 2 rank, units. This is an entire division for HC!
Even with this I still have plans to purchase some of the GB plastics. That stuff is just too damn cool not to add to the collection. Stay tuned for more on the project.

That's a lot of figs to have lying around in the "extras box!" The new GB plastics do look good though.
