Yep, got all those. VERY VERY nice! So much so that a another guy here
is
talking about getting some just to have for display purposes. I kept to
the
black and white habit theme for the fabric clothes their wearing, but
did a
dark chain mail for their armour. With the gold crosses on top they look
very Templar Knightish.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Its more because I'm a "what you see is what you get gamer", if it ain't
on
the figure then the trooper don't have it (puts my naked nun at a bit of
a
disadvantage, but what the hey). On the other hand though I'm one for
fairly realistic terrain setups, which can have fairly severe
implications
if we're playing to far from the prairie lands so to speak. Being able
to
just zoom over the really sticky stuff could be very helpful on certain
occasions - it could also mean with their lack of cam or armour the nuns
become even bigger targets than ever ;)
By the way further on the Nuns with Guns questions, have any of you guys
toyed much with elite troops (adding a few reds to the mix at quality
allocation time)? If so what have you found works best? We think we're
getting close to the right balance for the kind of flow we wanted (few
greens, occasional red, mostly blue and orange), but I'd be interested
to
hear what others (Owen? Tom? anybody?) have found.
Cheers
Beth
