Hi Guys,
Bet you didn't think I would follow with an update so quickly after the first!
I picked up a box of Conquest Games Norman Knights. They are a nice plastic set which allow for easy conversions and are nicely detailed which I hope my photos display below.
You will notice that all have had the plastic spears removed and replaced with Brass Wire Spears. I have young kids and the chance of a few breakages are pretty good.
Parts are included for a command group including a Lord, Musician, and Banner/Pennant Bearer.
The casualty base is a very nice touch as well
Lastly in the box Renedra Bases are included (both single and double cavalry bases - 4 of each). I decided to magnetise the bases for storage and transport using 3 mm diameter rare earth magnets.
I am very happy with the Conquest Games Normans and am looking to add more for my SAGA Army. I may even extend the collection for playing larger Clash of Empires or Hail Caesar games. Mmmmm Crusades .......
We are due to play SAGA again in around two weeks and I hope to have some paint on them by then!
Happy Gaming,
Allan

They are looking good! I plan to get me a box of those later this year as well to use for SAGA, so I will eagerly follow your progress.
Luckily it seems Conquest Games is releasing a boxed set of plastic Norman Infantry in July.
Good thing I ordered a few extra shield transfers from LBM (little Big men Studios).
