10mm Hordes & Heroes Range

.

The Kallistra Hordes and Heroes range is a beautifully sculpted collection of 10mm fantasy figures sold in packs containing, for man-sized characters, approximately 32 figures each.

 

My recommendation for players using Kallistra's 10mm figures is that they play using the VM game distances for 15mm figures, but with their figures mounted in one of the two ways explained below.  If both sides use the same basing convention, the rules are easily robust enough to cope, and VM also works perfectly well even if one side uses one basing convention and the other side uses the other. 

 

1)  Players can use one Kallistra pack's worth of figures mounted as per their H&H rules as one VM base:  giving a VM base effectively 80mm wide by 50mm deep.  This negates the need for players to re-base existing armies and means that they can switch between systems dependent on available opponents.

 

2)  Players can use standard VM 15mm base sizes, but increase the number of figures per base appropriately - CO:  16 infantry or 8 cavalry; OO 12 infantry or 7 cavalry; SO 9 infantry or 6 cavalry.
