Inside you will find parts to assemble 44 finely detailed ferocious Viking Hirdmen armed with spears, swords, hand-axes and Dane axes. Also included are specific extra parts to turn up to two of your warriors into Viking Lords and two into horn-blowers. Plus plastic bases for your figures and four paper Viking banners that can be attached to your spear armed warriors. The Hirdmen were the professional fighting men of a Viking Lord’s household. These fearsome warriors would be well equipeed with the finest weapons and armour: spears, swords, axes, helmets and mail. A favoured weapon was the mighty dane which was wielded with both hands and quite capable of severing a horse’s head with one blow.
