077: Jan Zizka 28mm Miniature

1-GIM077

The most successful Hussite battlefield commander. He learned his trade (and lost an eye) as a mercenary fighting against the Teutonic Order, but came to prominence leading Hussite troops to a series of victories won using their trademark battlewagons. In 1421, another wound left him totally blind, but he added to his reputation by continuing to lead his armies in battle. Legend has it, on his deathbed, he ordered a war drum to be made from his skin so he could still inspire his troops. Limited to 500 models, comes with a numbered card. 28mm sized metal figure, supplied unpainted.
