Later Crusade figures

hi,
looking to build a Later Crusader army for my g/f.

She loves the look of Crusader knights and is into that period of history.

I've read some posts recommending Legio Heroica figures and they do indeed look decent, but looks like none of their Crusaders ("Holy Land") range have the cloth coverings (called Trappers I think?). Image of what I mean is here:

Any solutions?

Hi Dru,

I've used Mirliton for my "Northern Crusade" Scandinavians... but that is a little bit later, so the figures might be a little too heavily armoured.

Again, you can get them from Olympian Games (God, it sounds like I'm Deans advertising department).

Just looking quickly through his cattle dog, it looks like he's now stocking Donnington New Era, which appear to have some figures that might work.

His cattle dog is located here:

May be you could ask Guiseppe from Legio Heroica if he could provide you covered horses from his feudal range

with horsemen from the Holy Land range.
