Wonderful site, although a forum would be nice. Very excited about upcoming releases and possible deals.

Gee-dub is 28mm.

You do realize 28mm means nothing without the right words?

Though they have said the size so far seems to be a compromise between Perry and GW sizes

Latecomer to the discussion, but the figs thus far look great, and having Naismith on as sculpter is definitely a step in the right direction.

Not anymore. Sole to eye, most of the currently releases of GW figs are in the 30-32mm range. May not seem like a huge difference, but placed next to standard less-heroic 28mm figs, GW figs are massive.

That said, if they are using some older GW bretonians as scale refference, it's likely that this will be a unit that would scale fine on the board with current GW as long as you don't try to mix GW figs into the same unit. Will likely scale well with Perry too, though in both cases, how well they will look stylistically will have to wait until we see the final figs.

Yes I'm really hoping they will work well with Perry as well, will work nicely as a Bretonnian/Empire stand-in army.

I wish these other companies would do stuff that didn't follow lockstep to GW's 40k 3rd/WHFB 5th edition sculpts.

I've got my eye on this company- I like the sculpts, and really like the style- they're full of movement and energy. That fact that they plan on completing each range sounds great to my ears, as well, as I'm envisioning an entire army with the same scale and style, rather than something cobbled together from different sources. I also like the idea of them being priced like Perry's plastics. I'll definitely be buying a few boxes of these knights, and I hope the entire Teutonic range is as awesome- I also hope they all comes out soon!

And I for one am glad that they do. I don't like GWs current Bret Knights. My Bret army is comprised of all 5th edition knights, grail knights, questing knights, and the metal MAAs. So this company producing models that scale somewhat with that style and size is perfect for me.

I also have lots of Perry crusaders for my historicals army, and again, this will fit right in size wise. Of course, these are a bit later than my first crusade force, but the plastis will be very customizeable.

GWs cav, particularly the Brets, are oversized and clunky looking in general.

Yes I agree with you 100% on that.

Not much of an update but some nice painted 3 Ups from an event called Crisis 2011

This will be at the top of my to buy list! They look awesome. I have always wanted to create a Bretonnian army based on the crusades. Now that it is a lot more achievable I may start WHFB army. Or I will buy this as a one off purchase. Either way I want some of these!

I saw their ad in this month's Wargames Illustrated, congrats on that, the eyes of the world are now truly upon you.

I like them.

If nothing else I would take the heads and use them for black templar.

Lovely booth, and those men at arms/sergeant heads look to make any knight army player happy.

FireForge has posted the kit for pre-order.

At roughly $31 per box (12 cavalry) these appear to be an excellent value.

Cool although looks like they wont be available for any christmas shopping.

Cant wait to see sprues

I so want some!

Looking great. Interesting way on how the capes work, reminds me of lego

WOW! How much are those? Those look sick awesome.

Scottywan82 wrote:WOW! How much are those? Those look sick awesome.

£20.00 for 12. So 4 more than the similarly priced GW Bretonnian Knights

Damn, sold. Any good US sites to pick these up?

Not at the moment, its just a pre order so far

FireForge has world wide shipping for £1. Makes up for the lack of any US distributor.

While I have this kit on pre-order, I'm more excited by the infantry kits to follow. I need tons of troops to build out Hail Caesar armies.

I would be VERY interested in plastic knights. I would use them as Black Templar scouts .

These look very nice. with 1UKP worldwide shipping, I could see getting a box of these. And definately interested in foot knights.

What for? I'm not sure.. but they look nice, so...

Is there any word on the possibility of Knights on Foot?

When should they be available? Any shots of the horses.

Hmm not sure, since they're still working on the sprues (which is why there arent any horses yet in 28mm) I'd assume Jan-Feb?

Ahhhh... They look amazing. I just want to see them finished before I commit. Certainly the riders inspire great confidence.

I'm sold too - the paint jobs are awesome - wish I could paint like that!
