Title: all the silly ka-nig-its

I've comissioned German Ritter (Knights) from Bob. I'm hoping to have a KS for them in November. Pics once I have some!

Excellent news! Can't wait to see some greens!

Are they going to be heavily armoured or lightly armoured?

Maximilian armor and full barding. I'm shooing for 1525-1550 for the Landsknecht range, a time when the knight was being phased out for other cavalry like the reiter.

Will they be closer to Warmaster-scaled Knight types (perhaps a little 'heroic') than the Reiters?

Though the Reiters are fantastic models, once I opened up cleaned and prepped the packs I got from the last KS I found they were barely taller than your infantry. It was a disappointment to have such great light cavalry models look a bit out of scale with the rest of the range.

I'm having Bob pay careful attention to the scale, yes. Pics!

Also, quick poll. Which one are we going to call the "leader"? You'll get one of him in the pack, one of the standard, and two each of the other five sculpts.

oh boy these look so good. I guess the guy holding the binoculars (?) should be the leader

Ha, I thought the same. But I believe it's a warhammer.

Those sculpts look great, the armour and super jazzy plumes are spot on. Must keep my eyes peeled for the Kickstarter, my (as yet unpainted) Empire army is very heavy on infantry.

Thoughts on anything? Otherwise they're coming to America.

Got the greens in, hoping to get them to the caster on Monday. The KS will launch once I know casting price.
