He's in the set - but now has a sword. I decided for game that Scots would not have throwing spears.

The Irish, wheres me Irish ? I think some Isleman, galloglaich, bonnachts, and kern would be an excellent first "expansion" for this game and draw in a larger crowd. Edwards 3 years in Ireland is a Rebellion skirmish game treasure trove ?
Is it possible,
Please ?
Pretty please ?

Do you mean Edward I or Edward Bruce? both invade Ireland.
I think I would first expand to include the Welsh Wars - Edward I's invasion of Wales as that was just preceding the invasion of Scotland. Irish would be good - but as yet I know absolutely nothing about the Irish - I've not read anything about it and don't know what the Irish forces looked like. Reference books on this appear to be scarce.

Edward Bruce.
He proclaimed himself king of Ireland in 1315 then mucked around Ireland for 3 years, won 17 battles, threatened Dublin a few times, till finally falling at the battle of Fochart.
The campaign centered around a long siege of Carrickfergus castle, with the Bruce even showing up a few times.
From a gaming perspective the swirling and shifting alliances of the Irish Lords and oft rebel Anglo-Irish and sometimes Scots NOT loyal to the Bruce leads us to battles with troops from all 3 factions facing off against each-other.
That beautiful circular stone keep, besieging Scots and Irish facing off against a relief column of English and Anglo Irish .... And wait, Moray and The Bruce on their way to help fend off the relief column .....ahhh now thats a project and convention game heaven ....

Alright, with he following released, what can we expect next?
Scots Pike, Scots Knight, English/Welthingybow, Engish heavy cavalry, Scots Archers
Maybe Scots light cavalry and english crossbows?

Actually, I've got a growing urge to do some heros.. Wallace in armour, King Bruce, Longshanks, all foot and mounted versions.

Pipers! We (ok, I ) must have pipers! Maybe I'm just biased.  It seems they would have as much effect as a banner-bearer...maybe more. Anyway, this is my first post here, so I'll say it now, great work! This is a much-needed line of miniatures, and game rules. |

Hey Ebob, you already have a Moray, are you going to sculpt him up again to cast him?
I am wondering because he was included in the list of your previous releases.

Yes, my Moray is only a conversion, but I'd like to do a new sculpt.

Alright, I am in the procces of paintin/converting my figures and am wondering which heroes will be in the next 2-3 releases. I would rather not convert those.
I hope to see (in addition to Wallce, Bruce, and Longshanks):
Mounted scottish and English Knights
Moray
Grey and Kerly
Stephen of Ireland
and some English guys.
Just wanted to know what you planned on doing Ebob.
Thanks
