The Empire handgunners  -  Posted: November 1, 2010  -  Manufacturer: Games Workshop
This is the first element of handgunners for my Hordes of the Things and Kings of War army... This one is 60mm
by 40mm, so it's ready to take part as a single HotT element and as a troop/regiment builder for KoW. The banner is pretty simple
but it does a good job for this unit I think. I went with a barricade sorta design for this; I imagine these guys commandeered
a few merchant's cards and stole their barrels and crates... Not sure if they bothered to empty them of their goods and fill
them with earth, or simply used them as is :) I mean, what merchant is going to argue with a unit og handgunners anyway? Thanks
to the barricade, the archery fire has been much less effective against these guys that their spearmen counterparts. For KoW
these guys represent two ranks of soldiers (six figs); I was never much for the 1 to 1 figure requirement ;)
