Heading Overseas with the Baron's War
Islamic Archers
With the Hospitallers done, it’s time to break out the colours for the Islamic forces. I had a look at quite a few pictures and paintings, and got a sense that I could pretty much get away with whatever colours I wanted, as long as they leaned towards being bright.
For these archers, I did my usual thing for non-uniformed troops – pick 3-4 colours, varying which item of clothing got painted with each colour, whilst keeping equipment like quivers and bows consistent. I think it provides some degree of coherency without uniformity.
