Athena Miniatures - Wars of the Roses Vignettes review Read about Athena's Wars of the Roses vignettes, including (but not limited to), knights, a surgeon, drunken soldiers, ruffians, farmers, and more. We all like a vignette or two on the tabletop, and Athena Miniatures have provided us with several new options for just that (and more) as part of their Wars of the Roses (WotR) range. Athena already has twelve WotR vignette packs available, including Knights getting into their armour, a surgeon at work on his operating table, and drunken soldiers. These have now been joined by: The Court (£14 for eight minis), Those Who Toil (£11 for five), and some ne’er-do-wells in the form of the Give us Your Purse pack (£3.50 for three). All the figures are of a simple design style, fitting in neatly with the existing Athena WotR catalogue, and very slightly chunkier than Perry sculpts. If you are looking for material for some Wars of the Roses vignettes, or just to add a sprinkling of civilian life to your medieval battlefields, then these packs provide a great deal of highly-serviceable options. Above: Give us Your Purse features three medieval ruffians. Above: Those Who Toil: a farmer, his wife, and several generations of their family, ready to work the land on your wargamers table. Above: The Court comprises eight miniatures: a portly lord and lady, her ladies in waiting, the lord's attendants, and a petitioner with his advocate.
