VICTRIX Foot Sergeants Sprues (x8 28mm Medieval Miniatures)
Every medieval army depended on its sergeants — the professional fighting men who stood between the knights and the levy, trained and equipped for sustained close combat. Armed with polearms, spears, axes, and swords, and protected by gambeson, aketon, and mail, Foot Sergeants were the backbone of Feudal European warfare from the Crusades to the Barons' War.
This set contains enough parts to make eight hard plastic, multipart Foot Sergeants representing the professional infantry of the Late 12th to 13th Centuries. Figures must be assembled and painted and do not include bases.
