I think that Eureka's halflings are the only ones we're going to be getting any time soon!

@Big Red: Did you mean something that would fit the "marauder" slot in the DoW list? I kind of imagined using these halberdiers for that, myself.

These look tempting.

Not that I need any more Halberdiers - but I said that about the xbows, and these look nicer.

The top left one, looks like he would make an ace Warden of the Tower of London, from Tudor times.

Once again, these are excellent and I'm always impressed by how efficiently you go from idea to delivery!

Like the crossbows, I don't need halberdiers at all and I'm really looking forward to some of your other planned miniatures. But also like the crossbows, I'll buy some anyway.

Any more greens for the halberdiers?

I'm egging on my friend Christoph to plan an Empire/DoW army so having basic troops available will be great.

I'll be buying some halberdiers.  Those are gorgeous.  Nice work, I can't wait!

Cool. I so don't need these, I must have a dozen painted Empire Halberdier units. But they do look really good.

Got some shots of the command strip from Bob:



These were meant to be based facing the narrow edge of the stip (one behind the other) so the standard won't work as is. I've asked Bob to shelf the standard for now (saving it for a command pack down the road) and sculpt another standard that'll work when facing the narrow edge. The fifer is likely going to get a helmet too.
