Fireforge Games Templar Knight Cavalry Review!

[Belgian]

Hi, This morning I have received some of the beautiful Templars from Fireforge Games before the actual release date! And all I cans ay they look as stunning as the Teutonic Knight Cavalry! If you're interested please take a look at the review on my blog.

If you have some questions, please don't hesitate as these miniatures are to beautiful to miss!

Wrong link or something, I got the file does not exist notification? But the article can be found on the left side.

They look nice, I guess I have to order some of these and the Teutons. If they release infantry soon, all the better. Seems like I am spending a lot of money this spring on minis.

Meeples and Miniatures also did a nice video review of the Teutonic Knights from the same range: http://meeples.wordpress.com/2012/04/16/miniature-review-show-fireforge-games-28mm-plastic-teutonic-knights/

They look like good figures, although I'm not a medieval gamer (never say never...) a dozen knights would add mounted units to a couple of Songs of Blades & Heroes warbands...

Look nice, always liked the Templars as an Order, much maligned in popular culture but brave knights.

Very nice.  It's nice the capes are separate as I dislike painting cloaks.  Don't know why, I just do.

Hi, thanks for fixing the link! I've also fixed the link in the initial post. I must say I have never been a fan of medieval wargaming but when I took a look at those knights and mounted sergeants. I've been playing with the idea of starting a crusading army filled with knights and pilgrims. I quite like pilgrims don't ask me why but I always wanted to build a unit of them.  

I hope they will release some foot soldiers soon as cavalry alone doesn't seem to fill the existing plastic hunger

Yes, they had a few '3-up' masters for infantrymen on their stand at Salute yesterday.

I bought a box of Templars. Haven't put one together yet, but we shall see... The components look just a little bit cartoony for my taste, but they might look fine once assembled and painted.

I agree Capt B (nice to meet you on Saturday, by the way   ).

In terms of accuracy, I cannot fault them (except, if I were to be really picky, perhaps cloaks for twelfth century Templars), but there's something about the way they sculpt cloth (barding, cloaks etc.) that leaves me cold.

Regards
