Wargames Atlantic: Foot Knights (1150-1320) – The Age of Chivalry

The Wargames Atlantic Foot Knights set provides 24 multi-part 28mm hard plastic medieval miniatures, perfect for The Baron’s War and Age of Chivalry scenarios spanning the 12th to 14th centuries.

AD MORTEM INIMICUS! “Death to the Enemy!” The knights of 12th and 13th-century Europe were the undisputed kings of the medieval battlefield. These sons of noble birth, heavily armed and armored, served their lords through the feudal system in exchange for land and riches. As masters of arms, their elite status led to the rise of heraldry and the ideals of chivalry. This set captures the warrior elite in their prime, ready to defend their liege or embark on crusade.

For the dedicated hobbyist, this kit offers immense versatility. These figures are designed for maximum modularity, featuring a massive variety of weaponry—including arming swords, axes, falchions, spears, and maces—and a wide selection of heads and shields. You can create a completely unique retinue for the tabletop where parts can be combined with other sets in the range.
