AoM: Barracks Phase 1 - Recruitment

[Sir Gareth]

Sir Gareth left Avalonia in hope of uniting the four guilds against the Drow. He currently travels throughout Mitgardia in search of those strong enough and willing to join his cause.

It was during these travels, that he discovered a small camp of Huns. Before the warriors willingly swore their loyalty, he challenged them to a test of their strength. While neither bested Sir Gareth, for he is a highly experienced knight, they did impress him. He cheerfully accepted their pledge of allegiance; delighted to recruit such skilled soldiers.

I threw this together to show off my brand new Hun Warriors (I finally found a case of CMF Series 12 at Target ) I had a lot of fun building this and writing the story. My favorite part was posing the minifigures, but I enjoyed making the snow too.

And finally, those Avalonians, Mitgardians, Kaliphlians, and Nocturnians wanting to join Sir Gareth's cause, please post your pledge of allegiance in the comments. For everyone that does, I will try to build a vignette of Sir Gareth meeting your character.

The colours of Sir Gareth's flag are dark green, green, and red, as his army currently consists of Avalonians, Mitgardians, and Nocturnians. But as Kaliphlians join, I will add dark blue.

Historica united can defeat the Drow once and for all!

C&C are welcome!

Thank you! Sir Gareth is pleased to have another Mitgardian join the cause :)

[mrcp6d]

Ugh, I really need to get some of those CMFs!

This is a nice little vig, perfect for barracks 1.

[Bacon Potatoes]

Lord Baconius would be glad to pledge to your cause. While he is busy on a quest in his own kingdom or would else join you himself, he would gladly send a legion of men to assist you.

Sir Gareth would like to thank Shay. It's great to see so many Mitgardians joining.

And a word to all. I'm working on vigs of Sir Gareth recruiting your characters. But, I could really use pics of who you're sending. I've already gotten them from a few of you. Thanks everyone!

[Alfadas]

I, Alfadas, am the one in the pic, and my men are just random vikings (either from the Vikings theme, or from the CMF's, or just some random Norse people). Hope that helps, otherwise I am happy to send some pics.

[Scaevola]

Nice build, I'm going to have to pick up one of those Hun minifigs :)

[Jakorin Swiftsword]

Nice work here! You've got me wanting some huns now. :D

Thank you, Alfadas. That's very helpful!

Thanks, Scaevola! They're definitely worth picking up.

Nice work here! You've got me wanting some huns now. :D

Thank you, Jakorin! Good luck finding them, I've only scored 2 so far. Bricklink's probably your best bet.

[the lego dwarf]

Lord Magnus pledges his allegiance too Sir Gareth.

Sir Gareth gladly accepts your pledge.

Now if only some Kaliphlians would join...

Cool build and use of the Hun minifigs, Sir Gareth

Nice job with the snow and rock-work as well, and great details with the barrel and bag

[soccerkid6]

Very good fig posing The two sections of rockwork frame the action nicely

[Slegengr]

This build makes a perfect background to showcase minifigures. I like the simple patches of snow and ice.

I finally found a case of about 20 CMF Series 12. I bought 5 that I felt out correctly: 2 wizards, 1 fairytale princess, 1 jester, and only 1 Hun warrior. I am just glad I found them at all, as stores around me never carry them. The Hun is definitely a nice figure and worth getting for the brigandine torso and accessories.

Stian's travels may cross paths with Sir Gareth, and we are united in a common cause in bringing peace to Historica and destroying the Drow.
