Fellow Cruasdes Collectors,

This two piece set, featuring the Scottish king, Robert the Bruce, battling the Englishman, Henry De Bohn, ties in to the previous offerings in the Crusades series better than I first thought it did. I found out today that Robert the Bruce had a contingent of Templar
cavalry fighting with him at Bannockburn in 1314, where he won Scotland's freedom. These Templars had sought refuge in Scotland, after King Philippe IV of France arrested all of the Templars in France in 1306. The Templar cavalry was a secret weapon of the Scottish king.
 
Bearybones could you use the templer on the rearing horse for the scottish war of independace,this figure is amazing and i was thinking of getting it,been sitting on the fence and didnt want to have just one MK figure surronded by hundreds of WW2 figures{sm3}
Regards Scott

Since mounted Templar Knights fought with Robert the Bruce, I guess that Templar would fit in quite well. It is a very nice piece, but it does come with two really neat Saracens.
 
Its the one with banner i was talking about mate^&cool
The ambush set is also nice:wink2:

Thanks for the info..... I will probably display these two separately anyway...

Any word on if K&C is going to release more pieces from the battle? I would think some English heavy calvary, English longbow men, Highlanders etc would be a nice set. ^&grin
 
If Andy starts this new line i am in ,i have been waiting for this since i started collecting toysoldiers
Would also like to see Andy make a figure of the WALLACE^&cool
Regards Scott
 
Conte is suppose to be coming out with some medieval Scots.

They have some proto-types on their preview page including Wallace.

On the first page under where it says Welcome to Conte's website they have different sections you can click.New Releases,Returning classics,Previews,etc.click on previews and scroll down a ways and you will see 3 or 4 figures not painted.
