Thanks, both!
I've run a few RPG sessions now with 1/72 figures, and they're really working as I'd hoped: enough identification with the PCs but sufficient 'anonymity' for the NPCs. And more focus on roleplaying than the figures themselves.
Here are a batch of foot knights (from Caeasar). These will probably require a bit more lining and highlighting in the new year, but they're ready for action in a game of Dragon Rampant tomorrow (as two units of Elite Foot).
Happy Hogmanay to all!
