TacoMareen Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Whatcha think the peasants look like and what kind of clothes would they wear? I'm thinking of owning an IG peasants militia to complement the knights and just painting cadians with purple armour seems a tad lazy.

Kilofix Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Are taking about real peasants or the Knight World's infantry defense force? Either way, it would vary between Knight Worlds but I think while Cadians may fit the latter, WFB Empire Free Company or Flagellants may be more suitable for the former.

Doctor Perils Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 You can always go all out and buy bretonnian men at arms from the warhammer battle range... before they disappear ^^ http://www.games-workshop.com/fr-FR/Hommes-d-Armes-Bretonniens You can then try and model them with lasguns and 40k stuff Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310470-imperial-knights-peasants/#findComment-4110266 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Otherwise model railroad minis have contemporary farm stuff: http://www.wholesaletrains.com/Detail.asp?ID=200426513&gclid=CNOvvMTousYCFQswaQodNG4B9w Or you could do Reaper for more medieval: http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/townsfolk/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310470-imperial-knights-peasants/#findComment-4110285 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) For Knight World infantry, the ornate armor of the Tempestus Scions matches the Knights very well. I have a unit kitbashed with Skitarii Vanguard heads for this very purpose. For commoners, I have to agree with the above. If you want large numbers, a combination of WHFB Free Company, Flagellants and Men-at-Arms is a good mix. For small numbers (objectives, display bases, maybe a combat patrol) I would use Huntsmen. EDIT: I assume you're going for an Imperial-aligned medieval-style aesthetic, due to your choice of "peasants". For Mechanicus-aligned worlds, WHFB Engineers mixed with 30K Tech Thralls and/or Solar Auxilia would be a good bet.
