They look very promising.

Great work on those.

These look great BUT when are you going to do the Saracens !

Your Crusaders are fab but they need opponents

What he said!  But these do look very lovely!

Smashing! I really like the look of these :-*

Dros Delnoch as a terrain project, anyone?

Now that would be something. Didn't it have something like 5 walls? Or was it 8?

Ten.

And a keep.

I like building wargame terrain as much as the next man (more even, maybe) but the Dros, in 28mm? Wow o_o.

Funnily enough, I guess the Fireforge foot knights/sergeants would do good service as The Thirty as well!

Love these!  You certainly get plenty of options.   :-*

I suspect this set will be pretty popular, quite a few uses for these fellows. They look great!

They would! I am still trying to decide on what kind of figures would suit the general Drenai. Their culture-base is fairly vague compared to the Nadir and the desert chaps whose name escapes me right now.

I'll be using these guys for northern barbarians in my upcoming Arabian games. Looking forward to them.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Kiatze, possibly, who were the progenitors to the Nadir? If so, they seemed like straight up medieval Chinese (but I'm no expert). Or more likely, the Sathuli - flowing white robes, big beards, curved swords...

I wonder how easily I could put together SAGA battleboards for Nadir, Drenai (Legion, anyone?), Vagrian, Ventrian, Gothir...

Sathuli are the ones I was thinking of. They would be easy to find in miniature. The Drenai are probably high medieval types, given some of the equipment descriptions.

The Vagrians seemed to have a sort of Kievan Rus feel about them to me, from what I picked up reading about Serbitar of the Thirty and his family/personal warband. The Gothir seemed general north European and the Ventrians sort of Italian city state/Venetian. I feel I have just awoken a monster lol
