After watching the new vesions of Shogun I was once again hooked in the Feudal Japanese history and the later Sengoku period 1540 -1600.
Ofcourse the FireForge plastic range The Samurai Wars was the answer to give me my Samurai fix. I always has had a soft spot for the FireForge minis, the last I built was their Almughavars back in 2022.
I got me a few boxes of Samurais and Ashigarus, I also managed to get hold of a preview sample of the new Samurai/Ashigaru Command Sprue that I thought I should share some pictures of below.
It is a really nice addition to all the other boxes that lack command minis, you probably want to get hold of several of them if you want Ashigaru command minis in all your units, I will try to do the most out of the ones I have and convert the other command minis needed.
The box have 3 sprues, samurais, Ashigarus and Horses that will give you 14 minis, 3 mounted samurai and 11 samurai/ashigaru on foot, including Samurai on a chair and 2 kneel down, as well as a mox of shigaru officers, musicians, ammunition handlers, banners and ofcoures the umbrella holder, a very important man in every Samurai army;)
The command box are still up for pre-order on the fireforge website untill the end of November.
Now Im of to build me a Samurai force for The Pikemans Lament, more to come.
