The Retinue nears completion

As I gear up towards a club weekend gaming the Barons War, I made a bit more progress on my own retinue. I had already added a couple of crossbowmen and serjeants to round the units out. This time I added a few more peasants and some serjeants with spears and large shields.



I'm pretty happy with the retinue. I have quite a few options which will give me some flexibility in designing forces. I still have a unit of slingers to add as well as some mounted serjeants. Then I may start on a second smaller retinue.







The beauty of the peasants is that they can be used in any retinue or even as a stand alone force as outlaws, hmmm maybe a Robin Hood force? The other thing I did was create some morale tokens with spare shields and dice holders. The first 8 I did were in my Baron's colours.


On Thursday night I actually got to play a game instead of umpiring. It didn't go well as Sean's peasants ran off with the prized goose we were fighting over. A few photos from the game.

  1. That is a decent sized retinue you have created Scotty! You can't turn your back for a second on those wily peasants!
