Atheling's Anglo-Danish Huscarl/Fyrd Unit Five

Post by Atheling_2006 »

I seem to be taking myself by surprise presently; on a bit of a roll at the with the completion of the Italian Mounted Arquebusiers a few days ago and now a 24 man unit of Anglo Danes to add to my army.

I have just one more unit of Huscarls/Fyrd, a unit of Norse mercenaries and two twelve man units of skirmishers to do and the army will have got as far as I had plans for! I find myself in the unusual position of actually getting very close to finishing as project!

There are many more pictures of the unit from a variety of angles on my Just Add Water Blog here:

Splendid unit.

Pah -Completely and utterly untrue, implausible, impossible, showing a lack of willpower, imagination and figure dreaming -you just haven't thought hard enough about what else you can buy and add :fp: :D

Lovely unit though

BURN THE HERETIC!! Burn him!

But leave the very nice figures alone.

Then I went and discovered that I needed to build a Welsh army from the Footsore Dark Age Welsh! :clappy:

I'm glad you came to your senses, mate. :-) So- have you finished them Welsh, yet?
