Pledge For Footsore’s Dark Age & Medieval Welsh Next Week!
August 27, 2021 by brennon
Footsore Miniatures are preparing for the launch of their next Kickstarter campaign next week on 30th August! The 28mm Dark Age And Medieval Welsh are going to be available to pick up sculpted by the fantastic Matthew Bickley.
Dark Age & Medieval Welsh // Footsore Miniatures
The range has been designed so that these metal miniatures can cover the Dark Age through to the Medieval period. Whilst there were changes in arms and armour, there was plenty that stayed the same too. So, you should be able to use these miniatures for the likes of SAGA or The Barons' War.
One of the core pledges that they have revealed for the campaign is their High Medieval option. This would be perfect for those playing The Barons' War.
The Welsh High Medieval Pledge // Footsore Miniatures
This is made of a number of different packs and gives you the core of a fighting force for the Welsh. I really like the mix of designs that we've been getting in these more recent Footsore releases. You get a bunch of very, very characterful miniatures in a range of poses that should make for a dynamic skirmishing warband.
I am particularly in love with those fantastic-looking archers. I am drawn more to the levy-like archers than those who have been gifted armour by their lord. They look like great skirmishers who would be a thorn in the side of many a foe. A special shoutout to the archer in his hood and cloak though. He.Is.A.Boss!
There is going to be a lot more popping up as part of this campaign so make sure you mark 30th August in your diary!
Are you going to be picking these up for The Barons' War?

Why even bother with a Kickstarter? Just send everything over to @panzerkaput 😉
Yes please sent it all to me 😀
Great looking knights an armoured troops.
I love this and I so want these dudes so my English Knights can kill them all, lol
These look so much nicer than my Gripping Beast dark age Welsh but I can’t justify the time and expense of getting an army I already own.
Edit: they’re medieval. Attention to detail SG
I wonder if they’re doing a dark age set as well …
why else specify this set as ‘high medieval’ ?
Silly me … it’s right there in the title “Dark age AND medieval”
Yeah it turns out the Kickstarter is for both periods. (My going off about dark ages was from an earlier preview.) Are you going after either set?
My original idea was just a Robin Hood vs evil Sherrif style set of armies.
So I don’t know how these guys would fit in the narrative, but OTOH … more is more, right?
I have the Robin Hood characters and the standard archers so far and the outlaws from the last Kickstarter on the way soon. I’ve decided these aren’t a great fit – though outlaws would hardly be be uniform. Yeah I dunno ?
was thinking more like a 4rd army for Barons’ war and maybe a first army for Saga for example ?
Not sure if the Welsh are playable, but … first I need to break the news to my credit card.
it’s funded already … I think that was a few hours maximum.
