Title: Pawnee
Post by: Kingscarbine on 05 February 2012, 10:21:21 PM

Hi,

Are Shawnee and Sauk/Fox usable as Pawnee for the Plains Wars? I want to build a War Party for inter-tribal warfare and the figs I've seen look like a good option.

The Pawnee would be more like the Sioux I think ie Plains Indians, and not as much like the Eastern woodland Indians, the Shawnee/Sauk/Fox (from the Midwest States like MI, OH, IN, IL.).

Yes they are ok, the most similar.
Most pawnee had scalplocks and shirts, so looks for appropriate figures.
But you need horsemen, Pawnee were plains Indians altough lived in earth wigwam.
