Title: The Perry's made me do it: My Wotr project
Post by: airbornegrove26 on January 25, 2019, 02:27:56 PM: I will first admit I know next to nothing about War of the Roses, but the Perry's from their latest campaign have made me dive into yet another period. I'm basing this army roughly on the Jasper Tudor force from the campaign. With Jasper leading a household unit of mixed heavy infantry, a unit of Irish Kern Javelins, a small unit of heavy Irish Gallowglass, and a unit of heavy horse. Characters will be Jasper Tudor, his subordinate John Savage (they most likely served on the field together, but mostly just liked the name) who will lead the cavalry, and finally the army standard bearer William Brandon killed at Bosworth having been promoted to Hendry Tudors Standard bearer. Again this is all very loose historically, so forgive any inaccuracies. Anyone on the the pic's

Nothing like falling down on your first attempt. LOL

Heavy Horse a mix of the WOTR knights and the new Agincourt Knights I couldn't resist, and there is evidence according to the Perry's that some of these styles lasted into the era.

Time for a little rest...these last two are my horse wound markers. My attempts on the infantry ones were not what i was expecting, so will just settling for buying that pack hopefully at Cold Wars in March.

He's fine.

He was doing a longbow v plate test and the arrow never made it all the way through ;D
