From PaulSS: [The Snow Lord’s Treasury] Tax Collector (25pts)

 

The Snow Lord’s Treasury:  Your challenge in this Chamber is to paint a figure, unit or vignette featuring treasure of any kind.  Go crazy with figures carrying gold, jewels, silver bullion, priceless artefacts, Elven-rings or strong-boxes with bundles of Confederate dollars!

The treasury needs constant replenishment, these huge armies and palaces don't pay for themselves so this tax collector has been sent out to ensure that the peasantry contribute their Écu to the cause.

The tax collector is a "Government Representative on Mission" from Eureka Miniatures his stern gaze and pot-metal sword should be enough to convince the Third Estate to contribute their measly tithe. The size of his chest represents the low expectations of the haul. I had planned to use a bigger chest, but I think they must already be packed away for the move, so this small one from the Cantiniere will have to suffice.

A single 28mm figure and the location bonus will add 25 points to my total.

28mm Napoleonics Duel Totalizer: 28 mounted, 142 foot, 3 guns, 1 boat.
