The Italeri 1/72 Crusaders release recreates troop types from the First Crusade period, depicting mounted knights, heavy cavalry and crossbowmen. It references key moments like the 1099 capture of Jerusalem under leaders such as Godfrey of Bouillon, offering compact figures for battlefield modelling.
Builders who enjoy accurate small-scale figures will value the varied poses and historical armour types. The almond-shaped shields and chain mail detail help convey battlefield roles and add realism once painted and based.
Use these figures to populate skirmish scenes or as accents in larger historical collections. Their 1/72 size makes them easy to place in crowded diorama layouts while still showing key equipment and formations.
