Perry Miniatures Add Both Knights & Billmen To Their Ranks

September 12, 2014 by brennon

Perry Miniatures are bolstering the forces for their War of the Roses range with some Standard Bearers coated in plate armour and then some Billmen/Pikemen to make up the ranks of the regular infantry...

Some cool armoured soldiers that would be a great addition to the existing boxed set of Foot Knights that Perry Miniatures came out with recently. Something different if you're looking for an alternative Standard Bearer and I like the one in the middle the best with his sword raised in the air.

The Billmen are part of the 'Standing' group so they won't be on the front line but further back in regiments. I do like it when you get this kind of thing as it allows you to make a unit of miniatures that looks like it's moving on the battlefield. Billhooks like that were awesome for pulling a knight off his horse and then opening him up like a can. It certainly leveled the playing field between the lowly peasant and the knight.

Will you be adding to your medieval army?

Wow. I wonder if my gaming tables would fit under a bridge, as I will probably spend this month’s mortgage on even more of the Perry’s creations. I still have boxes stacked up on my work desk from their last medieval release lol.

Haha, me too!

War of the Roses forces using Peter Pig’s ‘Bloody Barons’ rules is currently my 3rd project in line.. 🙂

One day, one day (although that won’t stop me from getting these to put into the ‘ready’ pile!)

I always think of the original Blackadder series when I see these. And then I hear Brian Blessed shouting ‘Fresh Horses!’

They’re beautiful as always. The Perry twins don’t seem to do bad miniatures

I have yet to see a mini from them that I did not like.

Anyone who wants to talk about high quality miniatures and pricing needs to take Perry miniatures into consideration.

Their miniatures are astounding quality and value!

I’ve been thinking on these all day, and what may happen is that I will order my missus a few more boxes of Civil War mini’s and kinda slip in these beauties as well lol. At least I can piggyback on the shipping!
