Fight For King Henry V Or Charles d’Albret With First Corps

If you're looking for some larger than life figures for your Medieval wargaming then see what you make of First Corps' Henry V and Charles d'Albret for the Kingdoms of England and France...

Henry V

Henry V is certainly a major part of English history. His succession to the throne saw him trying to dominate France and one of his most famous battles at Agincourt. He certainly seems like the perfect model to pick up if you like this period of history.

Model wise as much as I like the model I think the arm looks a little odd. I'm not sure if it's the angle but I think it looks a bit crooked. Regardless he looks rather epic in his pose, rearing up on his horse and calling his soldiers forward.

Charles d'Albret

Charles was the co-commander of the French armies at Agincourt and was killed at the battle. Still, a HUGE figure in French history and certainly as well known to them as Henry is to us in England.

Despite his professional nature he couldn't control the nobles who fought that day and so unfortunately the battle ended in disaster. I think his model is looking awesome although he suffers from the same strange army that Henry does holding the weapon.

Which side would you fight on?
