Movement and dynamism as well as accuracy and detail was a prime objective with this set. You can see from the leans in the saddle, to the raised and dipped shoulders wielding their variety of weapons, and their billowing surcoats and barding on the charging horses that this has been the end result. There is a massive choice of 18 heads in this set covering the varying and changing styles from the late 12th to the mid 13th Century. There are some open faced designs which then started to add the metal face guard and then to the completely enclosing barrel helms. Later Great helms and Sugar loaf helms will be covered in a later set. There are a variety of shield shapes, mostly heater style, both long and short, but also a teardrop option in there as this had not totally dropped out of use at this time. What do you get? 18 x Knights and fully barded horses 54 x Helmet heads 24 x shields 30 x lance arms with enough to make every figure with an upright or couched lance 12 x axe arms 6 x mace arms 18 x sword arms 33 x shield arms 18 x swords in scabbards 18 x horses (Transfers purchased separately) This set can be used as Knights and Men at arms that fought from the late 12th to mid 13th Century during the Crusades, the Barons War and the many conflicts that raged throughout Feudal Europe during this time of turmoil.
