JamesP's second Helblitzen unit with canon (238 Points)

Here is this month’s entry. No story this month as both units were detailed in my first Helblitzen post, just a short explanation. Some of you may have wondered why there are no banners in the army. I will add the banners last along with the shields, where needed. This isn’t done out of a sense of dramatic reveal but out of tradition. I’ve always painted the shields and banners last to coordinate them to tie the army together…and because I procrastinate painting them.

As I mentioned in the first month this is the first half of a 3000 point army. The required troop choices, or State troops wear the white and yellow livery of Solland. The second half of the army will consist of militia and other raised troops. They are provided with a shield painted in the Solland colours and are equipped with whatever they can get their hands on.
