Saga Rus Princes - Winter is coming ;-)
« on: 14 November 2013, 08:36:08 AM »
No... it's "princes" not "princess"  ;)

At least here in germany, things are getting colder and colder every day. A good inspiration to finish my (of course) winter-themed rus for Saga. 6 Points in total without the upgraded to "Black Hoods" and "Malaia Druzhina", which would make it 8 points.
I allready had about half of the models painted, rebased some of them, switched shields (to more russian style) and put a frosty style to all of the bases. Now here's the result:


12 Warriors. 12, because I wanted to field a banner for optical reasons. Another 4 from my generic infantry-pool will fill up the warband (and basically just generate a Saga die from the rear-ranks).


Archers... shooting... arrows.



Druzhina, REALLY hard if you field them as a unit of 8 with Banner and the upgrade... 3 points, but a real deathstar if played in a certain way.


Hit & Run Steppe-Nomads.

The Warlord is a conversion, I switched his head and horse, also put some more fur on him:
During Conversion:


Ready to command:



Thanx 4 watching.
