That mini looks like what happens when you sneeze and don't have a tissue.
Sounds lot like Dragon Rampant regarding the number of models needed. You might even be able to use your DR army for Warlords with few to no modifications.A couple of characters, a box of infantry and either a box of cavalry or a handful of monsters and you're in business.
Yes. I'm already not liking it.
Some of the Erin minis do look good but I can't say I like most of them though that may well be because of the paint jobs which do look a bit rough to my mind.
It's decent and all, but not interesting or unique to cause me to invest in new figs/new game.
Erin miniatures vary widely.The monsters are pretty good although some of them are rather game-setting-specific. The Milesians, sadly, are a bit weak. Not only are there not many variants, they're small, the faces are indistinct and some of the poses look strange. A couple of the characters are nice exceptions -- I think they're Bob Olleys work. The chariot is quite a fun model.The Sidhe are also Bob Olley sculpts and, although look a bit 'flat' compared to modern figures paint up really nicely and convert quite well too. Bit of ink work on the faces, washes on the flowing hair and they come out great. Certainly they turn into nice units. Mine are all wearing blue-toned clothing with blonde hair and shining armour. Cross between faeries and Vikings. If -- like me -- you like 'old school' figures, these are a good buy at the price.The Fomorians are just *brilliant* -- my one and only complaint about them would be there aren't enough of them. They have characterful faces and lots of nice detail to pick out. I found the trick to handling the small number of variations to make Dragon Rampant units was to use many different shades of green amongst the skin-tones; add various reds and browns for the clothing, rusty armour/weapons and they look anciently evil. Some of the heroes are quite big (Norc, for example) and tower over 28mm humans in a suitably menacing way. Cross between Orcs and daemons.
