What would be suitable figures if building an army under Charles Martel in 15mm?

Thanks

Baueda are a good choice.

To add variation in models I would consider mixing some Baueda Lombard and Viking types (Bondi)among the Frankish ranks.

Despite the loss of one battle, Charles Martel was victorious for the remainder of his life. That is a lot of captured equipment.

Indeed very helpful CC,

When I was reading the History of Charles Martel I did not know quite how to envision the soldiers/army.

Are we still dealing with Germanic tribe looking soldiers or toward Early Medieval/Late Dark age.
