Stronghold Support Your Warriors With New SAGA Characters
June 9, 2016 by brennon
Stronghold Terrain are continuing to grow their range of miniatures for both the Dark Ages and Crusading eras of SAGA. Standing alongside your warlord we first have the Monk.
This chap could find himself in a battle during the Crusades or indeed fighting alongside an Anglo-Saxons or Breton army during the Dark Ages. Either way he's a great character to add to your force to boost their potential.
Meuzzin
Next up we have the Muezzin for your Islamic forces who is shouting out his prayers to the assembled masses before they get stuck into the fighting.
This brings up one of the best things about doing an Islamic force from SAGA or indeed any game in that it allows you to go wild with the colours and be a lot more vibrant. For example here we have the very bright yellow and purple.
The Whistler
Last but not least we have a Bard for your army named The Whistler. I think this chap would become more annoying than helpful within a SAGA warband BUT you always need someone to tell your stories around the camp fire.
Despite his strange attire I could see him being a fun addition to the game and of course it brings to mind the need for scenarios and narrative play. Maybe he was your Warlords favourite Bard and the enemy has captured him!
What do you think?

Those are rather nice.
I think The Whistler would be a fine bard to have around. He just needs a strong name to distinguish him amongst the warband. Something like Jethro or Ian son of Anders…. 😉
I’m sure he knows all manner of songs from the wood. he can also, I suspect, weave a thrilling tale about a beast and a broadsword…
Nicely said sir… I wondered whether anyone else would recognise the obvious inspiration for the Whistler.

He doesn’t need a strong name as Cacofonix will do fine.
He also needs someone with a big stick nearby to stop him if he gets too annoying for his own team … 😉
Ian Anderson is ready for the dark ages!
Great miniature!
The first one is Russell Crowe, the second is Ben Kingsley and the third…..can’t remember his name, but I can picture his face.
with character but totally below today’s standards
