I've now added a brief report – and some pictures - of the Lance and Longbow Society demo game at last week's Salute show on my blog.

Excellent Simon. A lovely looking table - and beautiful figures, of course.
Good to catch up with you on the day, albeit briefly - did you actually manage to get a pause for breath all day?

Cheers.

The game looked excellent in the flesh

SA-weet!

Things I love:

- The bowmen in the river. How awesome is that?

- The trampled areas on either side of the bridge head. Thoughtful detail.

- The trained bear in the French camp.

BrA-vo!

Dear Simon,

I admire the complete look with the camps, grave diggers and the artillery stockade. I want to add some of these details to my Burgundians and Swiss.

Can you help me?

As far as I can see, most of the figures are Perry Orleans with a few labourers and artillerymen from the Perry WOTR range. There are some men carrying boxes – are they conversions?

Where did the buildings and the tents come from?

Where did you get the small stuff – wheelbarrow, chests, barrels and jugs?

Thanks
Mick

That river looks fantastic.

Mick
Here's what I can recall are the sources for the 'bits and bobs':
tents - Steve Barber Models & Baudea
jugs, boxes etc - Foundry have packs with groups of bits. Individual items try Front Rank, Mirliton, Bicorne. wheelbarrow maybe Foundry?
Two Guys carrying chest between them - Foundry HYW (dress will be a little early for later 15th century, if you need to be 'accurate') Guys with sack and box are Foundry too.
Other labourers - Perry WR range and waggoners from various wagons are good. Foundry do some HYW peasants.

Hope that helps,
Simon.

I also really like these - 1/72nd scale but i think they'd fit and plan on getting some soon - the Nikoli bits.

Superb looking terrain and figures as always. Congratulations, must have looked amazing in the flesh. Must try to get to Salute one of these years. It seems like I'm am missing a treat.

Sublime stuff Simon.

The tinge of green grows ever more around my face

.

Oh, well done to the Lance and Longbow Society for always coming up with a ready supply of men at arms to support their loyal Lord too

Certainly one of my favs from the show even though I've only seen 90% on the net.
