Northstar and Osprey have stated that these will be the first additions to a forthcoming fantasy game which will also include new plastic Goblins and Elves (amongst others I would surmise) but they would be suitable for any fantasy setting, Frostgrave, Song of Blades and Heroes, Open Combat etc..
Each Sprue contains enough bits to make 5 miniatures with a mixture of weapons including bows, spears and hand weapons. Also you can make a leader and standard bearer if desired. Buying a couple of sprues meant I could make 10 minis.
My only criticism at the moment is that there were no crossbow weapon additions on the sprue but I have heard that their will be extra dwarves released including these.

What is the sizing like? The soldiers box contained figures that seem a bit more.
ReplyDeleteThe size is ideal in scale against the frostgrave soldiers and you could even mix and match arms/heads on the different bodies for more modelling combinations.
DeleteYour review says "enough to make ten miniatures" but there only seems to be five bodies on a sprue in the pic?
ReplyDeleteAh my mistake. Missed an s. Meant the sprues contain enough bits to make 10 as I bought a couple of sprues.
