Slitherine

I'm looking to add a bit of distinct list flavor to my Low Countries army. It's all Essex 15s right now, but I see that Donnington has Plancon wielders, and they look way better than the Gladiator or Minifigs examples. How do they compare sizewise?

They are a bit taller, but not enough that it becomes much of a problem, especially since most of the Plancon wielders poses are with the legs wide apart and/or somewhat crouched. They also appear somewhat more fine/slim to me, but I think that will not be really noticable anymore once painted.

There are at least 8 different manufacturers figures in this lot and I am happy with it. I am 15" taller and 6 stone heavier than my gaming buddy so I think the differences reflect life anyway.

The green eyed monster raises its head again Terry. So all I can say is your camp is illegally deployed.

It`s a simulated landing but I only had marsh scenery to show it, I am starting on some coastal scenery tonight. HONEST I AM!

I don't know about the medieval figures but I mixed some Donnington Standard bearers and officers in with my Essex Romans and they look fine, a little less chunky but perfectly adequate.

There you go Phil! Coastal section added.

Now to re-create "The Longships" Film.

if you mean the New Era Donnington Placon guys here, they are pretty close to Essex, maybe marginally larger.
