Medieval Armies were as varied as modern special forces soldiers, and its something that we should try to put when we are designing a set that should indicate masses of bulked troops. This set however falls a little short of that goal.1)Accuracy : 4 - For the most part this set is reasonably accurate based on what we know of medieval sets. The set is kind of generic for any medieval army but it does raise some local flair. For example Chief Baci.
2)Design : 3 - The design of these figures are not the best that they could be. The Palsei warriors could have a slight amount of extra detail, while the coats of the Ciobanial could be better designed using the same method we use to make camo on modern soldiers.
3)Standard : 4 - Our perception of medieval warfare is in large part a view on large and or small battles. This set is currently at the standard of what we have in the medieval section, little variety between bases. It is something that should be fixed up a little better but at this junction it is something that is standing. Most of this is due to a lack of research resources out there for some of these older armies.
4)Uniqueness : 3 - There are very few unique or interesting poses in this set. There are some unique stands; Chief Baci again. But for the most part this is the only unique pose. Also there are very few separate bases. That means when you print them out they will look very alike.
5)Usability : 5 - They are based and ready to go. You have a ton of differnt types that are ready to be printed.
Total : 3.8 out of 5 stars - A great idea for a set to fill out some of the medieval figures that are missing on the site. But it falls short by not having a good variety of figures to use.
