Commander and chums...
Next blocking in the base colours on a command group with a Baron/Lord and his Bannerman. Also using one of the Outremer Military Order Knights as a Veteran Sargeant to bulk out my sargeants on foot if needs be…
The Sargeants...
The first unit for the Earl of Essex retinue is done… a group of foot sargeants.
Solid core unit for the retinue, though not cheap in points. May field it at 6 or even 5 figures if I need to reduce points cost.
It begins...
Well its taken a while to get around to this project due to real life getting in the way, but finally got an army ordered and prepared for painting…
After much deliberation, I decided that the first ‘Baron’ would be William FitzGeoffrey the Earl of Essex. His red/yellow heraldry is a favourite colour set of mine, having used it on my Dwarven Army, so I know I can bash these out and get a few units produced quickly.
So with a Baron selected, it was time to pick a unit to do, so I’ve decided to go with what will be a core unit for the army – a unit of 8 Sargeants armed with Falchions and hand weapons. I also really like these miniatures, which helps in getting them done!
So far I’ve made pretty good progress…
