OXLANC-14 – Lancastrian Archer | John Jenkins Designs
On a battlefield filled with standards, armour and polearms, the longbow remained one of the weapons capable of influencing the fight before the opposing armies physically collided.
OXLANC-14 represents another Lancastrian archer from the retinue of John de Vere.
Archers could be positioned to deliver missiles into an approaching enemy before supporting the rest of the army as the engagement moved into closer quarters. Their comparatively lighter equipment also gave them a very different appearance from the heavily armoured men-at-arms.
That contrast makes OXLANC-14 particularly useful in a diorama. A substantial group of bowmen positioned around Oxford's billmen and command figures immediately creates a more complete late-medieval force.
Available from The Military Workshop – a versatile John Jenkins Designs Lancastrian archer for expanding Oxford's contingent at Bosworth Field.
Brand: John Jenkins
