Victrix Miniatures Marshal Their 28mm Medieval Knights
July 22, 2024 by brennon
Victrix Miniatures recently released their Medieval Knights on horseback for those charging into battles across Europe and beyond. The newest preview from Victrix added in even more Knights, this time on foot.

This will be a new set that will feature eight figures per sprue. Five of the Knights will be in surcoats whilst the other three will be in mail. This should make these troops useful for fighting throughout the 13th Century but you could play around in that period quite a bit. You can use these Knights to represent soldiers from all manner of different European nations as their arms and armour were interchangeable or you could just make them mercenaries for whatever force you are building.

There are lots of different weapons on the sprues including swords, axes, spears, maces, the "batwing" cleaver and of course shields for those who want a bit of extra defence. As always, the Victrix kits are really dynamic so you can throw them into the heart of combat for fun-looking skirmishes.

You also get a lot of different head options as you can see. You can also get some head options not attached to bodies and being carried around as trophies. I do like the arm option with the sword upturned as if he is offering up a prayer to God in thanks for besting his foe.

The Medieval Foot Knights will also get themselves a set of shield transfers and flags. That means you won't need to start worrying about freehand! All of these miniatures are a lot closer to being a reality than you think and will be a perfect complement to the existing Mounted Knights.
Are you going to be adding these Medieval Foot Knights to your collection?

That’s pushing some buttons for someone who had a lot of Citadel Men at Arms in the 80s. Will think of a project as an excuse to get some of these.
These are really nice. More lively than Wargames Atlantic, but not necessarily better sculpted. I would buy these and put them in the first rank, and use the Wargames Atlantic minis (which are more static) to fill in the following ranks.
Great stuff.
That’s a lot of chain mail, another cracking release for victrix, 2024 is fast turning into the year of medieval plastics!
I think the Wargames Atlantic range has the edge of sculpting quality but these have some fantastic lively poses that Victrix seem to be making their trademark.
Awesome looking miniatures – Victrix quality shines as usual. I was not that excited by their mounted figures, but as the range is getting fleshed out, I’m leaning more toward getting some.
