Title: Looking for darkage, medieval or fantasy villagers
Post by: Corso on 09 July 2023, 10:37:49 AM
Can anyone make a suggestion. My gaming requires some survivors/villagers

So far these look about right

But I'm pretty new to scouring the pendraken site and don't want to miss out on any gems

European late medieval monks and nuns may also be useful?

Monks (https://www.pendraken.co.uk/monks-10-6896-p.asp)

Nuns (https://www.pendraken.co.uk/nuns-10-6897-p.asp)

2 questions, Nobby.
1) What are using these for?
2) Which one is the Centurion tank?

Ah! The Religious Communities have many uses:


It's also little known that Cistercian nuns are an absolute whizz at camouflaging Centurion tanks. Once Sister Mary George has been at your tank, it's harder to find than a Ford Focus in an Ikea car park.

Whatever it is you are drinking, drink less.

Really? Have you ever seen a Cistercian nun and a Centurion tank together?

(https://www.globalsistersreport.org/files/20191105T1041-31700-CNS-VOCATIONS-CISTERCIAN-NUNS.jpg) There's a Mark III in that foliage

By the way, do you think that's a Panther in the background?

Marvellous effort disguising a Swedish Centurion by the Sisters of the Blessed Dimple in Frodsham.

Well done the Sisters of the Blessed Dimple, you've fooled another one.
