So in a RPG I am running, the party will be working as a caravan escort through some rather hostile territory. I have a good deal of scratch built carts ready to go, courtesy of the laser cutter. That said, I have no drivers/drovers for them. Can anyone recommend any fantasy or medieval cart drivers in 28mm? I need 8 of them total. Ideally, it would be cool to have different ones, but beggars can't be choosers, if I have to have all identical, that works too. Thanks! Jim |

Thanks Kevin. Those are pretty good. I will definitely be picking some up. By the way, are those your paintjobs? Very impressive looking. Nice work! Now that being said, I am sort of looking for seated drivers. I know during the medieval period that was not really the norm, that drovers would walk along side the cart/wagon, but this is technically for a fantasy game, so I guess maybe I need to hit slightly later periods, like the renaissance? Thanks again, Kevin. Appreciate the response, and will be getting some of those. |

Check out the Perry's, I believe they have some under the European Armies section. Edit: my bad they are under the War of the Roses section. |

Sweet! I will do so and thanks again! |

Perrys make some nice wagons and drivers. However, the drivers are either riding the draft horses, or walking alongside the cart. No seated drivers. Also, the drivers are not available separately from the carts or draft animals. |

The charioteers from Plastic Soldier celtic chariots are an option, and there'll be excess ones if you know someone with them. |

Cool, thanks for all the input guys, appreciate it. I will look into options. I suppose in a pinch, and with some time, some bits from the bits box and green stuff I could convert some to US Civil War miniatures which seem readily available. Thanks again! |
