King Theoden of Rohan and his Honour Guard

Another Copplestone 10mm Fantasy 'Hero on Horseback', King Theoden of Rohan, accompanied by Gandalf the White, at the head of his Honour Guard of Rohirrim.




Here he is solo, and with a 2p piece for scale.





The cavalry are Copplestone 'Horse Tribe Royal Cavalry'.  The flag is hand painted paper, taking inspiration from the Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings film design of the Royal Standard of Rohan.

Next up from the Copplestone Castings 10mm range is Faramir, Captain of the Rangers of Ithilien, and two units of his men.  The figures are based on 80x40mm bases for 'grand scale' Hordes of the Things (with Faramir's circular hero base sitting on a clear acrylic stand). In the Hordes of the Things rules, Faramir is a 'Hero', and the Rangers are 'Lurkers' (not deployed as formed troops at the start of the battle, but able to ambush enemy troops that enter areas of rough terrain).

Isildur's Heir - Aragorn and Gondor Spearmen
