Need more foot soldiers... (1 Viewer)

[mikemiller1955]

I just received MK86-87 and 89...and they are lovely...I now have a lot more Crusaders laying seige to my castle than I have Saracens defending it...I hope K&C comes out with some more Saracen foot soldiers soon...they are sorely needed...seems like it's been a while...the camel mounted Saracens were the last release and that was a while ago...I sure would like some more foot soldiers to man the walls...crossing my fingers...

Hi Michael,

I just received my MK86 about an hour ago and I agree with you that's it's a very nice piece. I especially like the color of the horse and the knight's head gear. I agree with you, that we are in need of more Saracens. The odds are getting a bit too unbalanced, but I expect more Saracens will be releaseed fairly soon. I have at least one of every K & C Saracen that's been released to date, but the enemy still looked a bit thin. I've added a fair number of the First Legion Mamluks to my enemy forces and have found that they blend in quite well.

Michael mate,
Totally agree cobber.
I spoke to Andy about the same thing sometime back. If I remember rightly he said that Knights are better sellers. I put it to him that I would buy one Knight but would buy maybe three or four men-at-arms to make up a dio. Of the current releases I have only one knight figure but with the Crusader foot soldiers and archers I have two or three sets. Same with the Saracens, only one Saladin and flag bearers but many multiples of men-at-arms and archers, both on foot and mounted.
Cheers Howard

George...they are getting a bit unbalanced...I have several multiple sets of Saracens defending the castle...but would sure buy more...

Howard...I believe him...I think the Knights are probably better sellers...they can be used a lot of different ways...but I hope he does come out with some more Saracen foot soldiers...

I would really like some with long spears extended...I have way more Crusaders than Saracens...one can only hope...
