Clad head-to-toe in layered scale mail — each plate crisply sculpted and catching light at every angle — he stands with the quiet confidence of someone who has turned away far more dangerous visitors than you. A diagonal satchel strap crosses his chest, a utilitarian lantern hangs from one gauntleted fist, and in the other he holds a distinctive forked crossbow, its prongs splayed and ready. Greaves, knee cops, and buckled leg armour complete the kit of a soldier who takes his post seriously.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe detail rewards a painter's attention: the scale armour offers a broad canvas for layered metallics or a weathered campaign look, while the lantern is a natural focal point for spot lighting effects. The visor helm keeps his identity deliberately anonymous — is he a loyal city guard, a corrupt checkpoint enforcer, or a disguised ally? That ambiguity is a gift to any Dungeon Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you're populating a gatehouse encounter, reinforcing a city watch patrol, or giving a Fighter or Ranger player character a suitably battle-ready identity, this sculpt carries genuine weight on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdventurers who'll love this miniature:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDMs building out urban patrol encounters or checkpoint confrontations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlayers running a Fighter, Ranger, or Rogue with a military background\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollectors who appreciate functional armour detail over ornamental flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePainters looking for a strong mid-range piece with satisfying surface texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEncounter Hook:\u003c\/strong\u003e The party needs to pass through the merchant quarter's locked eastern gate after curfew. The Crossbow Guard on duty isn't corrupt — he's just thorough. He wants documentation, a city seal, or a very convincing lie. One hand rests on his lantern; the other hasn't lowered that crossbow since they approached.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 32mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase: Available with or without a plain base — choose your preferred option at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied unpainted and unprimed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultipart sculpt — minor assembly may be required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupported and unsupported variants available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSculpted by \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/epic-miniatures\"\u003eEpic Miniatures\u003c\/a\u003e — visit their collection to explore more of their work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePairs well with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/npcs-townsfolk\"\u003ecity watch NPCs\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/the-underdark\"\u003eUnderdark\u003c\/a\u003e gate encounters — or browse more from \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/epic-miniatures\"\u003eEpic Miniatures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMitz \u0026amp; Simz — the cats are between adventuring days and cannot be disturbed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReady to add this adventurer to your collection?
