28mm Targe - border reive shields - wargames atlantic!
« on: 28 July 2025, 10:45:39 PM »
Short story I am going with Wargames Atlantic for my border reiver mounted folks - and i will say not a huge amount of different with other manufacturers/breeds!

The Shields are an issue though - any recommendations on ideally plastic options to replace teh Spanish options in the box!

Any help appreciated :)

Dixon Miniatures sell studded targes. They're metal though and in packs of 30. Five variants though.

Ah, but there is a big difference in other manufacturers' breeds — the Galloway Nags from Colonel Bill's are by far the best sized for 28mm Borders:

I agree bills little dudes are Godlike - if I was going pewter they'd be for me, I'm just a plastic head these days. I'll be mixing some of bills stuff in - need some long/riding boot wearers for my foot and I like the vendel/bill gangsta/gunslinger posing!

I'll check out dixons on the targes thanks!
