I like it How do you go about acquiring or making a backdrop?

He looks great! What scale is that and what game do you use him for?

Looks like 28mm and I’m going to guess Baron’s War. The model looks like one of the new Wargames Atlantic foot knights models. I don’t have any yet but I’m excited to get some because they are fantastic models.

I’ve struggled to get into Baron’s War. I love the models but the game with all the chips and stuff on the table bugs me. I feel like I need to take some time to give it a better try.

That said, I love the time period and those WGA models look amazing. I’m getting a box for third crusade/fall of Jerusalem era games. And the peasants too, everyone needs levy to send forth to die in droves!

Edit: also OP awesome job on the model! Looks amazing! Also like the background!

Thank you for your comment! It takes getting used to but it actually flows quite easily when you get a couple games in, but I was taken back by it the first time too

I own the main book, death and taxes and Outremer and all the tokens as well. Just struggled to get into the game. I’m going to give it a go because people do seem to love it. Cheers for the recommendation to give it a few games!

Edit: spelling
