Hi there.

I was enjoying reading this very much as I do not know much about this battle.

Would you be able to repost your comments without all these computer generated interruptions.

They ruin the narrative and I cannot follow it


Thank you

Nice sculpt . Very good movement, good stances, impressive by the numbers But once again, the great sickness of today . Peoples see Teutonic knigths, or Templar knights everywhere . They were a minority . And their clothings were dull . At the battle of Legnica there were knights coming from all Europe and the minority was the Teutonic knights Order . All knights were wearing Their coat of arms<br>For Henry II of Poland it was,( see picture ) The coat of arms was on the shield, on the surcoat back and front, and on the caparison . The Knights were coming from those regions ( see map )

The great question is who was there, earl, baron, duke, princes from where and what was their coat of arms . For that period you could https://archive.org/details/matthewparis012094mbp/page/n315/mode/2up

Agree, however the are nice sculpts but the painting is too white , too clean, should do what they have with TM Napoleonic French dirty battle look

I prefer to see them hopefully battle painted not clean out of the laundry

Thank you, that's great advice. I have added some dirt stains to the sides of the horses. Hope all collectors will like them.
Thank you!

Goodness me - as a passionate toy soldier collector these look really great figures. I will be looking to add these together with all the other great stuff coming out of the TM stables. Gary

It’s amazing the difference that little mud makes.

I do agree we need more variation, but that’s a good start
