Lovely looking stuff - a great collection.
I keep thinking of expanding my Normans into early crusaders.
But it's the thought of painting a turk/saracen opponent that puts me off - all those horses and all that patterned cloth...

The two armies, Muslim and Crusaders have got to this stage since April 2014.

I once bought a 15mm 25man Zouave ACW unit at Salute on a Saturday and was playing with it at the Club on the Monday. I paint even faster than I used to, since discovering washes!

June's recruits for Outremer

Three spear units, 2 medium & 1 Heavy foot




1st Medium Foot


2nd Medium Foot

The extra standard can turn them into a Heavy Muslim unit if required
