Guards of Traitor's Toll, or Possibly Return to Whitby
Suspects...er, I mean innocent civilians
While I stuck more-or-less to the game’s illustrations for my first batch of guards, I let myself be more creative with the civilians. I used the game’s “identify” card as a rough guide to what I would need for the game, and over three sprues of civilians plus a batch of models from Midlam (see below), I think I’ve got most of the possibilities covered. Here’s the first set of 6 civilians.
Midlam Miniatures makes some great medieval townsfolk. I got these to pad out an order, thinking they might work for Traitor’s Toll, and I’m pleased to report that the scale and sculpting style match up perfectly. “Man running with small bemused pig” is a personal favorite.
Here are few random models that seem like they might fit in: A promo from Footsore Miniatures (I assume it’s for Baron’s War), the promo dwarf from the Traitor’s Toll base set + expansion bundle, and a shifty looking llama I found in a bargain bin at a local shop.
I’ve got two more sprue’s worth of civilians assembled and primed, which will give me a total of 36 models plus the guards. That should be enough to at least try the game out, and since I’m sprinkling in a few of the Midlam models I’ve got an extra sprue of civilians to do later, even before I get into the expansion.
