PanzerKaput Goes To Barons’ War

About the Project
Set against a backdrop of a Civil War that lasted for two years, 1215-17, as a result of the issuing of Magna Carta. A civil war was the perfect opportunity for the leading nobles of the time to grab land and power while settling some old scores along the way. This vying for land and power hadn't stopped since the invasion of 1066 with only the strongest of kings being able to keep their nobles in check. Our narrative focuses on small groups of warriors brought together under a lord or baron to raid and steal or defend land and property. With the strong, wise, cunning and lucky aiming to rise out of this civil strife in a better position than when it started. The Barons' War skirmish game has been written to enable players to fight out tabletop battles against the backdrop of the First Barons’ War between rival Barons or rival factions who find themselves on either side of the conflict. The game is historically themed, the gameplay is fast-paced and tactical with plenty of narrative and where force building presents you with lots of options enabling two players to muster very different retinues. However, as intended, this is an alpha set of rules which does not include rules for siege warfare, although rules for fighting in buildings are included. Campaign rules are something that will be addressed at a later date and released online. Having grown out of the Barons’ War Kickstarter project, the intention is for this ruleset to develop into a system that could be used throughout the Medieval period. Starting with England from when the Western Roman Empire withdrew around 410 AD to 1485 AD when Richard III died at the Battle of Bosworth Field. This presents us with a huge span of history for gaming which can be broadly divided into Romano-British, Anglo-Saxon and Viking, Anglo-Norman, Angevin and Plantagenet. And that’s just when looking at it from Great Britain. With warriors of this period being pretty similar, it would be easy to use the profiles in this rulebook to play out tabletop battles in any setting. Over time we see these rules evolving with additional warriors, characters, abilities and scenarios being added starting with the Dark Ages, the Anarchy and the Crusades and shared to www.warhost.online, which has been set up to be the community website for the game.

Knights Go a Walking
Foot Knights for the Barons WarWell following along with my Barons’ War collection from Footsore and Warhost and here are all my Foot Knights.
I love these Paul Hicks sculpts and how they look some good when arrayed together.
I really love the special characters as they look amazing.
I still have a small knight problem though, lol.

A Full Charge of Knights
All my KnightsI have surprised myself with the number of Mounted Knights I have for my Barons’ War, Medieval Skirmish Game. This does not include the mounted sergeants I have for my Milites Christi’s and my Welsh, plus a couple of characters. I totalled this force up, though it is not a legal force, no greens, well you cannot have green knights or sergeants, they are 1200points of them.
God, I love these Paul Hicks sculpts and Footsore Miniatures & Games for producing them.

New Crusaders
The kingdom of JesusalemI have finished two special characters for my crusader force and I’m jolly pleased with Brother Andrew and Brother George. These both are special, limited-edition figures, the knight with the banner is Footsore’s special figure for shows and events and the other figure is actually based on one of the guys who wrote Barons War, was a giveaway figure this year and I have done a simple weapon swap from a two-handed Falchion to a Great Axe. They are both amazing sculpts by Paul Hicks, so full of character.
I have gone for a blue tunic colour based of the Knights of the Kingdom of Jerusalem as seen in the film Kingdom of Heaven, watch the Directors Edition not the normal one and I love the film. I have lightened the blue for the film to a more sky-blue colour and add the yellow Jerusalem Cross. I have reserved the colours for the shield to add some contrast along with the yellow trim. These are the test figures for my Outremer force once it arrives.
New Video Upload for St Mary de Pratis
I have uploaded another video about The Barons’ War: A Medieval Skirmish Game to my YouTube channel PanzerKaputs’ Painting School for Scoundrels.
This time the video is of my full Abbot William Pepyn’s force of the Abbey of St Mary de Pratis
