looks at a fast-assembly naval kit for the Age of Sail.
Alternative Armies expands our 15mm Renaissance range again with eight new codes. Following up on new artillery and gun crew last time, we now add cavalry to our growing selection of Landsknects (now over 30 poses). You will find most of the early 16th Century on "page two" of the range, as the range runs by time period, with artillery and Ottoman Turkish at the end.
Useful in Italian campaigns, as well as across Europe in the 16th Century, we hope you enjoy these historical releases (which can also be used for fantasy if you prefer an imagi-campaign or such). The above image shows some of the new cavalry in front of two of our 15mm buildings (HOB1A Small Hovel and HOB1B Big Hovel).
MRC75 – Landsknecht Cavalry Command 16th Century (2)
MRC77 – Landsknecht Cavalry Sword
MRC78 – Landsknecht Cavalry Sword II
MRC79 – Landsknecht Cavalry Crossbow
MRC80 – Landsknecht Cavalry Crossbow II
MRC81 – Landsknecht Cavalry Arquebus
MRC82 – Landsknecht Cavalry Arquebus II
These riders are supplied with horse MRH02, but they will fit any horse in the range; and as with all other cavalry, you can purchase riders on their own too.
These riders will sit happily on the new MRH20 Barded Armored Horse, if you prefer to have your Landsknects a bit heavier on the table.
Perhaps your Landsknects will act in guard of their own artillery? MRX23 Organ Gun (above) can go with any of the gun crews, including MRX19 which has four Landsknect gunners.
These are our 15mm scale historical releases for this month at Alternative Armies.
