Size comparison Silver Helms/LOTR Knights of Dol Amroth

#1 Post by Aerendar Valandil »

Hi all,

Does anyone know how the LOTR Knights of Dol Amroth compare to (4th Edition respectively 5th edition) Silver Helms?

The 5+ edition SH have the big horses, but the 4th ed had the old caparisoned GW horse. They ar a bit smaller, and I would like to know how the knights fit with those.

If it helps, here is a picture, I attempted the same thing and decided that while very nice the Dol Amroth knights are too small.
They could perhaps work as a homogeneous unit, but in my opinion they don't mix.
I still have those knights, the round bases have now been finished.

Thank you, MasterofNone, I think that rules them out for me. (Sadly.) At least for now.

Yeah unfortunately lotr is 28mm but Fantasy is/was 28mm heroic which makes everything just a bit larger and they don't quite match up.
