Baueda have just released Joan of Arc in 15mm & 28mm(but she doesn't weigh the same as a duck - not even as ashes

)

'But how do you knooow that she is a witch?'

When I did my Orleans period French (10 years or so ago) I used a Ral Partha Fantasy figure mounted and dismounted options, full plate armour with shield, no silly proportions. Hair probably too long but never mind.

My reading suggests she should be painted as a redhead. (which as some Medieval texts suggest was the mark of a Witch - so you really could say 'She looks like one.')

No witnesses at her trial claimed that she turned them into a newt though.

Did she weigh the same as a duck ?

It was obviously a fair cop.

Probably Princess Alusair from the Cormyr command pack, same mini I used, although I placed the mounted version on a caparisoned horse.

King Azoun from the same pack is shortly (after a 20 years wait) going to appear as Barbarossa btw. his beard and full mail makes him just perfect for it.

Wow, a real Forgotten Realms Battlesystem reference, classic.

Who knew others liked that range?

"No silly proportions"??? Where on Earth is the fun in that?

Surely just to emphasise the, er .. quality of her armour

If she is a witch, surely her properties will only be revealed in the FAQ v13.

She has a wart and a nose that's like a twisted carrot. We could build a bridge out of her. She floats on water. She turned me into a newt. She weighs the same as a duck. She looks like a witch. She's a witch.

QED

I don't need FAQ's to know the bloody rules.

Ah but in FoG:AM as currently written, no BG may enter a Coastline feature. If witches can float on water, a BG of witches will either need an FAQ or an Errata concerning Coastline. You also fail to mention the POA of the spell 'turn a Naked Fanatic into a Newt'. (Obviously the Impact POA of 'nose like a twisted carrot' vs heavier armour is mute against a naked fanatic, nor will we consider impact of length of weapon in that particular encounter.)

As for the rules, I thought that rather than knowing the rules you just asked Hammy...
