Title: Looking for ideas for a Medieval Nobles Coach ( 28mm )
Post by: AndyW on March 12, 2020, 12:03:19 PM
Looking to sort a coach ( and coachman ) for my Baron's Wars, Robin Hood games of Fistful of Lead. Any ideas and suggestions welcome :)

Good idea, we were discussing the very same for our FFOL games as well. I'll be very interested if anyone comes up with any suggestions as we couldn't think of any.

A bit of Greenstuff would convert that Warlord Roman driver into a medieval driver I think?

I think this could be interesting for you, it is a fantastic §D-Print-Collection: https://3dprintterrain.myshopify.com/collections/medieval/products/medieval-times
Here are some Wagons: (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0333/7076/7404/products/20190327_183141_110x110@2x.jpg?v=1583151726)

As that is a Hussite style War Wagon that would take quite some converting to make it look luxurious. Having said that a conversion of some description is the way you might have to go. Off the top of my head I can't think of any company that makes specific wagons of the type you mean. I even had a scan through the Mirliton site, who do a lot of 28mm Medieval dioramas but to no avail :(

I also did a Treasure Wagon. It probably has a better name than that. They were both made from a War wagon with parts shared between each.
