A few more pics.

The most joked about match up of the day, the Lasadag Lions versus the Pavis Survivors.  Literally the lions versus the zebras....

The Yelmalian Pike were unstoppable.  For as much grief that they get on the adventuring circuit, this was a welcome change of pace, and I think very much in line with what was envisioned by the lore, based on Dragon Pass/White Bear & Red Moon.

More llama action...

The fight for the Highlands was uneven. The Red Cow and other Jonstown Tribes were empowered by the Eleven Lights, while the Tarsh militia were low morale, with no special supporting magic, and they ultimately crumpled as soon as the Tarsh Furthest Foot gave way.

Speaking of, this is the Tarsh Furthest putting up a valiant effort on behalf of Lunar Tarsh.  They were ultimately swept from the field by the Power of Orlanth (with a little help from some Humakti Death Magic delivered via Two Pine), but our after analysis of the game showed that the Lunar wings, which had definite disadvantages in terms of magic and manpower, had enough moxie to but time for the center to grind straight through the middle of the field.  Their tough fights ultimately won the day, even as they gave their lives for Empire.  Such an analysis was necessary because with 12 foot tables, one side had no idea what was going on anywhere else!

I am in AWE. I saw the studs on the lamellar or whatever that was, holy crap. 

And your non-metallic metallics are fantastic.

Lunar army occupying Prax, sable lancers.  Sables by fenris games, lancers by Aventine miniatures with Pendraken miniatures wire spears.

This is great to know: Mad Knight (via Rapier) finally came out with Sable Riders, but extra sources are always great. And I like the miniatures you choose.

And, Sir Godspeed, awesome work! You are a far better painter than I and I find your work very inspiring. I'm really glad to see other folks putting up pictures.

May I know the source of your various miniatures?

... and because I am an incorrigible show-off (even though many people are much better painters than me), I present a baboon troop:

These are Armorcast baboons (Lance & Laser line, page 10). A couple of notes for painters: The baboons look really good, but they are rather large; human sized or a little bigger. This makes them larger than standard for Gloranthan baboons. On a more technical note, the miniatures had quite a bit of flash; be prepared to work with an X-acto knife or small rotary tool to clean flash. Also, as is my habit, I mounted them on plastic bases (which have magnets in them). 20mm bases for most, 25mm for crouching baboons with spears.
