Medieval



Back to HISTORICAL


Some gamers lump medieval gaming into the same category as Ancients, but we prefer to keep the categories split in order to highlight what is special about this category.

Medieval gaming also overlaps with Fantasy, since what do you get when you remove the magic and monsters from a typical fantasy ruleset? A medieval ruleset...

The two types of medieval gaming are:

  • epic scale - Big battles, such as Agincourt and Crecy, with hundreds of knights (and thousands of poorly armed peasants).
  • skirmish scale - the adventures of a small party of warriors, whether they be Vikings rampaging across the countryside, or a small band of the King's men fighting bandits in the hill country.

"Stardust is a European paint manufacturer based in the south of France," writes Stardustcolors Sponsoring Member of TMP. "The company works mainly in two sectors – firstly, the manufacture of paint for all types of vehicles (cars, motorcycles, bicycles, scooters) with a predilection for paints of another type: the special effect paint.

Stardust Colors

"Our second sector of predilection is the manufacture of fine acrylic paints. These are solvent-free paints, called water-based, which are mainly designed and dedicated for the different disciplines using airbrushing as a mode of application:

  • artistic paints for airbrushes
  • paints for radio modeling
  • paints for maquetism and hobby
  • paints for figurines and miniatures (wargames)
Stardust Colors

"These are superior quality paints which are therefore specially formulated to be ultra-fluid, very resistant, and containing a high level of pigmentation."
