Medieval additions Scottish archers 22 oct
« on: 17 February 2023, 11:35:22 PM »
A few bits off the table over the last two weeks, a gift of a resin turn marker  for Christmas from one of my mates, it has painted up nicely.



And some medieval casualties





Cheers
Matt

That turn marker is cool.  The casualty markers are nice but I'd rather you were using one, two, three, or four stones as indicators rather than those numbers.  Sure, I understand the purpose but seems like a decided distraction from a good visual game, part of our never ending battle to achieve a workable game without visual distractions.  Never get all the way there, of course.

Good idea with stones ......I normally have been using the dial marker (which are hidden) but run out, I am picking some up at Hammerhead.

More medieval kit off the table this quarter are some HYW pieces for my French army. Mounted crossbow were mostly associated with the feee companies but were also in the French Armanac, Burgundian/English armies. More bits coming this weekend
