Have you tried Musketeer Miniatures? They do one as part of a set including a Christian priest. If you haven't seen Musketeer before, check out the Hengist and Horsa figures which would be great for your nobles.

I was going to suggest Musketeer also. Gripping Beast has a set called Pious Monks there is one that might be what you are looking for. GB also has a set called Bishop and Attendant if you are looking for something a little more dressed up. The Hengist and Horsa figures are very nice, as well as the Aella and Bannerman set.

My Saxon priest is an old Asgard Warrior Priest (F4) with a crozier rather than a weapon in his open hand. They come up occasionally on ebay.

Are you looking for a Christian priest or a pagan priest? Either way, Gripping Beast has a good selection of both. Foundry has a nice set of characters, including champions and a priest:

And West Wind has a sale on their Arthurians, which include some good character sets for champions and religious advisors!

a very pagan priest – I have monks and Gandalf/Merlin figures and such like for the Brits.

anyone got any ideas for armed females that could make a unit (other than Shadow forge)?

I will look at the musketier minis to go with the gripping beast ones…

Thanks for your suggestions so far….

And here's some women. Ok, they are ancient celts, but unless you get an expert on early mediaeval fashion, whose gonna know?

that German shaman looks the part… and I can use a dog handler as well.

but the Celts women are not armoured enough… plus I already have them (doh)

Wow, you're tough to please ;^)

These ladies are in my Saxon force, but with tongue firmly in cheek!

Maddaz11117 Jan 2013 12:20 p.m. PST

got those as well, yes I am Damn tough to please!

I might already have everything!, but I sometimes drop on to things that I missed the first time.

perhaps I am looking for something that doesn't exist…

I have to admit, my first thought on seeing the thread title was to ask if you meant a Sherman priest, as the Saxon was an APC and never converted into SP artillery.

However, if you are good at conversions, you could try to bolt this:

onto this:

But then you'd have a Saxon Sexton, rather than a Saxon Priest, so it would still not be what you asked for.

Don't mind me, it's just been one of those days…
