Slitherine

Ive just had a go at what looks to be the funnest crusader army now that my painting is almst complete:

Only 11 battle groups but all pretty rock solid.

4 generals
20 superior knights in five battle groups
Bedouin to skirmish and keep pesky horse archers away to escort the KN intofrontal comtact

I cant wait to try it out. Am painting up a unit of Templar at the moment.
