Servants of War: The Backbone of the Feudal Host

The term“Serjeant,”derived from the Latinserviens(to serve), designated the professional, lower-ranking warriors of a medieval lord’s army. While knights were born into nobility, serjeants were seasoned career soldiers who rose through the ranks via skill and service. Well-armed and armored in gambesons and mail, these men provided the essential professional core for battlefield clashes and castle sieges during the 12th to 14th centuries.

This hard plastic set captures the grit and versatility of these professional warriors. Based on original sculpts byPaul Hicksand finalized byRob Macfarlane, these figures integrate seamlessly with the broader [Age of Chivalry] range. Whether you are fielding them as a disciplined shield wall or a skirmishing crossbow screen, these serjeants are the versatile foundation of any medieval retinue.

The set includestwo unique frames—a specialized figure frame and a dedicated long weapons frame—to provide a massive arsenal for your build. Parts are fully compatible with Wargames Atlantic Foot Knights and Levy sets, allowing for endless kit-bashing possibilities.

Weaponry and equipment included on the sprues:

• Polearms & Spears:Long spears and halberds for rank-and-file defense.
• Close Combat:Iconic falchions and swords.
• Ranged Support:Full crossbow assemblies and Pavise-style shields.
