Title: Dark Ages Figures
Post by: Doug on 14 April 2010, 08:08:11 AM
Could you consider some additions to the Dark Ages figures
Dark Ages civillian to put in my village for when the Vikings raid, these figure could also be used as pilgims for the eary Crusades, or in the fantasy range.
A Viking long boat in resin for those Viking raids, a model like this could have multi use, such as general shipping or even as part of the invasion fleet for the Normans.

Pilgrimy - civilian dark ages figs are always a good thing.  Especially in long robes.  I suspect there are a few of those in the beggars and other human fantasy categories already, but some more would never hurt.

I recon we are long over due for some more Dark Ages releases so I will add some more for the resins section!
An AngloSaxon long hut, just some thing like the pictures in the Warhammer Ancients Rule book
A church
A monastery

We'd like to extend the Resin stuff, but it's finding the time/designer to do it.  Although Capt Verbeek had some nice buildings on show not so long ago...!   ;)

I've added these to the lists, I like the idea of a longboat as well.  There are some figures in the Fantasy Beggars that could possibly do as Civilians, or oeven the armed peasants from the Medieval range?

I have tried the pesants from the middle ages range, with one exception they are all wearing hoods which (to the best of my resarch) were not worn in the dark ages. I am getting some figures from the Beggerman fantasy range as an experiment, but thankyou for puting my requests on the to do list. Regards Doug

Which code in the Medievals did you get?  I don't think the ELM14 - 'Peasants Mixed Weapons' have got hoods on, but the ELM37 - 'Monks' do.  I'll have to check on that.

That's an interesting one, I'll pop it on the list.

Yess! that is very interesting, There are no hounds in any range... I always look for the less fearful wolfes to do my hounds ( I think that are the irregular ones).

Also interesting the hounds for conquistadores in the new world, or in eastern europe

I'd like some dark age Picts (i.e not just early imperial roman period ones wearing nothing but loin-cloths and cloaks), with long tunics, cloaks and for nobles and leaders chain armour and conical helms. Most of them bearded. Including spearmen, archers, swordsmen, command, crossbowmen, light cavalry and noble heavy cavalry. Could include some naked or almost naked fanatics too though as fanatics/ attecotti and some chariots to use for earlier periods.

These would make good enemies for Arthurians/Romano-British, Scots-Irish and early Vikings.
