APG Paper Figures Military Orders

Figures and miniatures seem to be important pieces to the d20 game. It can help the game get a more tactical feel for large combats and help the players visualize the scene for interesting and bold maneuvers. In the age of miniatures and paper figures though, the cost can get expensive and the items need to look cool.

This collection of Paper Knights actually makes complete sense for Alea. They have devoted themselves to products that deal with knights, their codes, their orders, and everything one might want about knights. They do a good job and have really defined themselves well in this niche.

Paper Figures Military Orders comes in a zip file a little over five megs. The file itself is a little over seven megs. One little detail that I like that I do not see in this type of items is book marks. They book marked the figures. This is not a product that really needs book marks but I prefer to see them then to not.

The PDF is not that big only about ten pages. They amount of figures per page is a little lower then I usually see. For the first few pages they only have four figures per page, but the final page does have twelve on it. But I am getting ahead of myself. They have a nice table of contents and possible the most important detail is they have instructions for keeping the paper figures in decent shape. The paper figures themselves look great. I believe they are pictures of actual painted miniatures. These are the type of figures that makes on want to start a Crusade. Most of the figures are human but there is some dwarf, half elf, and halfling ones as well. There are a few different types of knights as well like the Teutonic, Templar, and Hospitaller.

Another great little detail is they have the pictures linked to the web. By clicking on the picture it takes you to the Pegeso Model website where you can browse and actually purchase the miniatures of these figures.

These are very nice looking paper figures. There just are not a lot of them here. If one has the need for knights though, I have not seen any paper figures better.
