Ion Charge 2023. 1

With the end of the OWAC approaching I have decided on setting myself another challenge for the rest of the year, I have found the focus a nice way to structure my painting beyond whatever I am playing/catches my eye

The second half of 2023 will be a drive to paint my Alternative Armies Ion Age forces. Just like the OWAC I will post my progress each month, here and on the Alternative Armies group on Facebook as well as actually getting teh forces onto a table and putting together some battle reports ( and maybe even a video!)

The completed terrain for my 28mm has been a inspiring start and will 

The Ion Age by Alternative Armies, has figures for both 28mm 

Alternative Armies Ion Age 28mm

and 15mm

Alternative Armies Ion Age 15mm


The game can be run using several different rulebooks that reflect the sizes of the figures and battle size. Patrol Angis for 15mm and multiple platoon and vehicle conflict,  Moth for 28mm for smaller skirmish level conflict.


Set of Ion Age rules and extras.


Hades Legion
Completed 28mm Shia Khan Forces. 
One Warlord,One Psycoborg, one Nox, Nine Legionaries, One Legionary Pioneer and Five Maligs


Lithic Assumption
Completed 28mm Prydian Precinct Forces 
Two Muster and Ten Planetary Militia


Unpainted forces. Ten Retained Knights, Thirteen Muster, Two Nox and a Legionary

I have a couple of the Planetary Militia on order to complete the Planetary Milita Platoon and will then look at completing the Muster (One figures for a Platoon) and then Shia Khan (Six Legionnaires for a Ordos) 

For my 15mm Ion Age, I have a lot further to go...


Prydian Precinct and Shia Khan forces


Beyond the figures I am aiming to add to the 28mm terrain and work on some 15mm terrain including the Hab domes I have and a Portable Castle. I will also be reworking my background material for both my Prydian Precinct faction, The Lithic Assumption and the Shia Khan Hades Legion.
