They look fantastic.

Insignia on the shields in particular. Nice freehand. Are you just getting into Kings of War or have you been playing a while? 3rd edition is just around the corner!

Thanks for the positive feedback! Freehand shields are my favourite things to paint, and this was fun because it was quite standard for all the shields, unlike the viking and early-medieval shields I usually paint.

@Knight-Captain Tyr: I was into Kings of War from about 2010 to 2012, and then sorta lost touch with it. I really, really liked the rule set back then because it was technically simple yet tactically complex, and it had a lot of potential for historical games! I initially wrote many lists/rules for historical KoW http://www.hourofwolves.org/?view=articles&which=KingsOfWarHistoricalAncientCombat but then they released the historical supplement, and even took the time to update them for 2nd edition in 2016... but despite that I haven't really played the current version of the rules, so I basically missed a whole version of the rules! Looking forward to what they bring this autumn, should be great.

Thanks again,
n

Based up that unit of knights as well, now I have two whole regiments of the old knights ready to go.

All together I have about 1500 points of Bretonnians for Kings of War, I'm using the Brotherhood list since it appears to have been specifically tailored for Bretonnia.

Some very nice units you have! KoW s probably ideal with its very abstract system to bring those forgotten armies back onto the tabletop.
