Threats, always threats. And do you think your loud cries for revenge concern me unduly? You threaten what you do not understand, for if my work is interrupted, then all this glory you see about you will fade and be trodden underfoot. There are men who would bring about the destruction of adventure gaming and all that it represents. No, you threaten me because you see me as the Satan to your St. Michael. The world is not made of archangels and devils, my dear fellow. You do not know the dirty work undertaken so that Lead Adventures gleams like gold.

But I admire your spirit, and one day your youthful idealism will be replaced by a more practical understanding. And then, perhaps, you will understand why I do what I will do.

Guards, I have changed my mind. Place him on the next boat to Sweden. Make sure he has a sword.

Then bring me the Spaniard KeyanSark.

Ooh, "Jesuit Swine!" I can't think of a worse insult than that, other than "Shrewsbury Town fan."

Your leniency in dealing with this knave shall be your undoing, Monsignor Murray.

Perhaps. Or perhaps I wanted one less crime on this sick soul, and hope that the world can temper Hammershield's iron core into a finer grade of steel. But what is done is done, and it lies in God's hands now.

But as for you, M. Plynkes, I have need for your services as well. The one you call "Hogan" has been seen in Flanders. Dare you brave the Channel again?

Well, I have to admit that the footwear William of Oranges' quartermaster issues his agents is not ideal for stealthly attempts on the lives of papist lackeys. Nor for wenching, I might add. There is something about dingy-looking footwear that just doesn't say "sexy".

Anyhoo... I think we have a scenario here, Keyan, for which these beauties you show us are ideal. Now who makes dutch assasins i clogs? Foundry?

So, did these figures ever see the light of day, at least commercially? Anyone with better Spanish than mine know?

Ok my spanish is very limited and not all the photos appear in the link provided.
But, yes, I like very much the miniatures!

They have good petentials and some (like the monks) can be used in other period as well.

But, if realised, the star will be the "medico" doctor!
