Fireforge Northmen Cavalry

 Though I bought a box of the Fireforge Northmen Cavalry way back in November, I had not got round to doing any more than photographing the sprues (not even posting them here).

The box contains enough parts for six cavalry.

There is one of the common Northmen Command sprues.


There are two sets of bases (ignore the ones on the right).  The elliptical ones ended up under the Chronohounds.
Two sprues of multi-part horses with partial barding.

Two sprues of riders.
There are three arms with swords, three with spears and one banner. I am not convinced the swords would fit in the scabbards.
The horses are in four parts (head, left body, right body, tail). I am not sure how much you can mix and match them.

The horses (especially this one) have very small points of contact, and only one hoof anywhere near the ground. I pinned that one and will add some miliput to hold the other two hooves in place. It has fallen off twice so far.
