PaulS: The Knight of the Sun (28 points)

 The sorceress waved her wand and we vanish from the previous room to turn up in a room decorated in a similar manner to a 17th century Spanish villa. We're not entirely sure what this means... or how it has appeared in this dungeon... but at least it isn't more of those bouncing red things!

"Wot'choo doin' in my 'ere sola?"

We all turn and stare. Unsure what to make of the being stood before us in all it's finery...



In the Warhammer rpg, Ogres aren't a weird problematic view of mongols, but just another race that lives and works across the Old World. There used to be Empire Ogres dressed up as Landsknechte, so when I saw this in one of the Titan Forge Patreon packs, he just had to be printed up as he fitted my idea of a Tilean knight. He even had the sun on his armour! (yes I know sun and solar aren't the same thing... but still)

He's a giant of an ogre, so I'm going to count him as 54mm, so 7pts for him and 20 for the Knight Solar room.


Conquistadore ogre? I'll take your word for it being 54mm (you seem an honest chap, unlike that Ray character), but that's 10 points not 7!

30 points for you.

[update]

Looking back, possibly not 54mm, but a lot bigger than a normal figure, so your call! - Paul


Tamsin Update:

Ahh, more of a 40mm figure then - 7 points it is. Plus a bonus point for honesty!
