Saga Help Tip
A boxed force like this is one of the easiest ways to start a new army: you get several units in one box, so you can build and paint a playable force step by step.
Getting started
- Build one unit at a time. Clip parts from the frame with plastic cutters, scrape off mould lines with a hobby knife, then glue.
- Prime everything in one session with a spray undercoat. Leave hard-to-reach parts, like riders or cloaks, off until they are painted.
- Paint unit by unit: block in base colours, add a Shade, then highlight the raised edges. Finishing the leader first keeps the momentum going.
