This new project for 2022 has started a couple of months early, so now very much looking forward to the gaming adventure to come in September/October.

Heavy cavalry was rare amongst the Almoravids, but leaders would often raise units to act as personal bodyguards.

I'm looking forward to see this project develop particularly as your others have been so good. There are a nice range of figures out there with the Artizan and Footsore ranges being my favourites. Black Tree are pretty good as well

Marvellous! Basing is lovely too.

Another one to follow with interest. :)
Very good start. :-* :-* :-* :-*

Andalusian Jinetes (light cavalry). The Berber tribes provided a great number of expert horse archers to the armies of the later Kingdom of Granada. The Andalusians bred the best horses in Europe and used them in the traditional light cavalry style.

Almoravid Berber Archers. Bowmen were an important part of Almoravid military machine, their massed archery being an effective weapon against the mounted Spanish knights.

Probably the same one I guess! Did the WAB El Cid supplement back in 2003. Always appreciate a fine mini army of this period.

Andalusian Crossbowmen - the Andalusians quickly adopted the crossbow as an infantry weapon. It became particularly popular amongst their militias, who fielded it in large numbers.

I really like the way you used the same colours in different ways to create both a feeling of uniformity within the unit but at the same time allowed individualsim. :-* :-* :-*

Yusuf ibn Tashfin’s Almoravid Black Guard Archers. The Black Guard were stubborn and tough fighters, who truly set themselves apart from other Berber soldiers. This bow armed unit will combine with spearmen to rain down arrows from the safety of the rear ranks.

Castilian Knights. Chivalry in medieval Spain cannot be understood outside of the context of the military orders. Historians are conflicted as to whether Spanish knights were directed more by royalty than Papacy.

Spanish Arqueros. Bowmen were commonplace throughout the Reconquista and the Christian Spanish Lords were known to use their servants as auxiliary archers, usually deployed behind spearmen in the battle line.

Yusuf ibn Tashfin’s Almoravid Black Guard. If you have ever watched the 1961 historical epic movie staring Charlton Heston, you would definitely remember these boys. Sinister in appearance, the Black Guard truly set themselves apart from the rest of the army.

You can basically use any Norman range, just swap out some of the kite shields for round ones

May I ask were did you get the King Richard figure?

Hi Randy,
Dick is from Footsore Miniatures

That is a wonderful scene.
I imagine the one knight saying. "As long as we don't roll a one we should be ok"

Thanks, Gareth about King Richard.
Off I go the check him out. :D

Re: The Jund
Its important to note that the Bedouin should be quite distinct from the Berbers. Notably the Bedouin used baldrics for swords or daggers, in contrast to the rest of the muslim world, which favoured a belt around the waist, or silk sash. The Bedouin were also never archers, they didnt believe in using arrows to kill men. Burchard of Mount Sion (c. 1270); "they do not use arrows, saying that it is base beyond measure to steal away a man's life with an arrow." They were almost exclusively mounted lancers, so the use of infantry bedouin spearmen in the Jund is very unlikely.
Your berbers look decent but you should try your hand at some more colourful robes for the infantry, their dress was quite colourful, with bright reds and blues as well as white, striped blue and red robes too were very fashionable at this time.

That's a top tip Lord Raglan, I often use Hollywood films as my primary resource for painting guides, in fact I have a historically accurate unit based on the above still from the 1935 film The Crusades.
I found I used a lot of black and white paint though ;)

For someone born English he doesn't half stick in a lot of anti-English feelings in his films.
I wondered where it was in 'We were Soldiers' then I found out that the really tough
sergeant was based on a Brit. who emigrated to the US, volunteered for Viet-Nam &
saved a lot of lives at the Twin Towers on 9/11. He was the only one to die from his
floor, having gotten everyone out safely he went back in to help others.

Its a horribly historically innacurate film but the attire all does look very good. Most of Saladin's army were mamelukes and arab cavalry, ghazis, and city levies, the film isnt innacurate in its portrayal of how much of this army looked, although it maybe overestimates how well many of them were armoured. I dont think it shows any bedouin, but it didnt really need to imho. The kingdom of jerusalem's lovely matching surcoats for the entire realm (or templar ones for reynald's party somehow) are ahistorical but they do look great, i've never quite got that shade of blue down on a mini though, its a very bizzare colour.

The Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem. The monastic hospitaller order was created following the First Crusade by Blessed Gerard de Martigues whose role as founder was confirmed by the papal bull Pie postulatio voluntatis issued by Pope Paschal II in 1113.

Kingdom of Heaven - The Knights Hospitaller were established following the First Crusade to protect and treat Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land. They were recognizable by their black or red surcoat with a white cross. An elite and powerful fighting order of well trained knights.

Me too Trev. It's funny, I've waited years for the Perry's to update their Hospitaller's and add caparison's but it didn't happen. Then when I had the chance to invest in the FS Kickstarter, I procrastinated and it all cam to nought! o_o
