Birger Jarl miniature from Fire Forge



As you surely know Fire Forge game has released a box with plastic Scandinavian Ledung Infantry as a part of theat release they also released a Resin cast mini of the Swedish Hero and Founder of the Swedish capital Stockholm, Birger Jarl.

Birger Magnusson from the house of Bjälbo was  Jarl/Earl of Sweden from 1248 untill his death in 1266. From 1250 he was  regent of Sweden with his son Valdemar Birgersson that was elected King of Sweden in 1250.

I painted the mini on a command base with one of the Plastic Ledung infantry minis.

  7. Brilliant stuff - I just added him to my Fireforge order :-)

    Tell me, are you aware of any Scandinavian Army lists for Burn and Loot? I figure if anyone did, you would (or even wrote them yourself!) I noticed that Medieval Germans have them listed as Allies, but I cant seem to find their list anywhere. thanks!

    1. Thanks Paul !

      You can find my Scandinavian crusader army list for burn and loot in WSS magazine issue 90.
      As well as a article and scenario for battle at Neva 1240, between Swedish crusaders under Birger Jarl and Novgorodians/Russians under Alexander Nevsky.
