Footsore Preview Finished Norman Knights & Crossbowmen
March 2, 2018 by brennon
Footsore Miniatures are going to be invading the British Isles with their Normans in the near future and so they showed off some of the finished painted miniatures this week on Facebook.
The painting here looks like the work of Darren Linington and shows off the charging Knights, thundering across the field of battle to smash into the Anglo-Saxon lines.
They also have some Crossbowmen who will be providing covering fire as the infantry advance upon the enemy.
The models are looking great, as you might expect from the expert hands of the Footsore team. This might inspire a few more people to look towards building up an alternative force on the table, especially with such great looking cavalry as that.
However, I am a staunch Anglo-Saxon player (when I do get into SAGA of course...) and so won't be dealing with these filthy invaders!
What do you think?

Great looking Norman troops.
Footsore do an excellent range of 28mm metal dark age figures and these certainly add to them.
The enemy and they have cowardly crossbows
Some great looking cowardly troops though 😉
Footsore doing Normans, my wallet is having palpitations
Don’t pretend you didn’t know, you’ve only been telling me about them for months lol 🙂

Failing to deal with the Norman “filthy invaders” is pretty much what the Saxons did…
Boom Boom
Reckon we are going to see more of them. At first glance the Norman board looks to be better than before
@huscarle – I’ve had a game with them and scored a WIN 🙂
I demand a recount!
shush.. I’m keeping that drumming a secret. You know, on the down low.
I’m sure the Celts will be back in bigger numbers 😉
Yup once we get the new rules down we need to bump them up a bit. 8 points would really let us explore the factions 😉
It feels wrong but deserves a thumbs up 🙂
@huscarle You loved it really 🙂
