Wargames Atlantic Goes Medieval!
We know...we know! We already have 11 ranges on the go but who can resist knights in shining armor and men in tights and chivalry and all that?
We've spent the last year studying the finest resources on the medieval period:
First, we decided this range would fit nicely between Blood Oaths (which ends around the time of the Norman Conquest) and our Renaissance range. The new range will be called The Age of Chivalry and will cover roughly 1067 through to the late 1400s where the Renaissance kicks in.
After much work and in close consultation with our friends Paul Hicks and Andy Hobday who are behind the excellent Barons' War range and rules, Rob Macfarlane has started work on the first plastics:
The first sculpts are for Foot Knights suitable for mid-12th through the early 14th century. He has also completed Sergeants, Levy, and some cavalry sets which will follow the knights in close order.
The first frame will include the following parts:
Here's some photos of some of the figures assembled and painted:
As you can see you can get quite a lot of variety, weapon options, and helmet types from the set!
Once we got started though, we got a bit excited and pushed it right through tooling too!
And then we figured, well this one is all set to go so let's get it on pre-order and shipped off to everyone as soon as possible!
Pre-order now! Shipping later this month!
Four other sets will be following this one in very short order! So you see, this isn't the April Fools' you thought it was!
