Does anybody know of any minis depicting human warriors wearing late medieval armor, without poofy sleeves and wielding two-handed swords? I have a need for such warriors for a fantasy kingdom. I can do minor conversions if needed, just not looking for Ren. guys with poofy sleeve. -Eli |

Checkout Demonworld Empire and Isthak foot knights. (Sold by Ral Partha Europe.) You should find what you are looking for there. |

I second Demonworld figures. I have a number for my Late Medieval armies. The character sets are really nice. Cheers, |

How do they blend with other manufacturers? they have always looked a bit cartoon-ish to me, but that may just be the Warhammer style paint jobs. -Eli |

Lots of good suggestions that have led me to a lot of good leads. As the army being modeled is from a colder northern environment, I might even be able to hide some "poofy sleeves" with puttied on cloaks and pelts. -Eli |

Puffy sleeves more or less equals Renaissance era figures so just check out that historical era. There was plenty & armor & swords around too. John Kelly |

Some of the Hundred Years War guys are getting pretty puffy :) -Eli |

I'd expect pretty much any 15mmhistorical manufacturer with a late medieval range to have foot knights with 2 handed swords. Have a look at the pages for pretty much any of the armies in the Storm of Arrows book in theFoGAM wikis my site for a list of manufacturers Www.madaxeman.com Tim |

Sounds to me like you mean Landsknechts link |

I'd say you want pre-Landsknnechts, to avoid the puffy /poofy sleeves, so late 100YW or WOTR. Also avoid Swiss.
I think most packs of dismounted knights will have a variety of weapons, so you won't get many with two-handed swords. |
