I am planning to buy Kataphrakts in the future but I have to ask if you can make all of them normal, I know you can have one captain,one banner and one drummer but can you just make all of them normal?

I just had my set dropped off by UPS. I count 14 sword arms, 2 extra swords, 2 banner arms and 2 drummer torsos. There are also 8 "rider" bodies, but 2 of them essentially have to be drummers. Still though, with a little conversion work and some extra horses you could theoretically make 8 Kataphrakts out of the one box. |

Assuming you had hold of an extra 2 horses. I will be assembling 1 Captain, 1 Banner, 1 Drummer and 9 normal Kataphrakts. I will convert 2 or 3 Easterling archers into drummers, and use the Captain helmets and cloaks to convert the 3 metal Captains I already have. |

I didn't see it in their listing... Could've missed it though. |

In WotR they can. And in SBG what happens to the Kataphrakt Drummer when his horse dies. |

I have 7 or 8 boxes of Easterlings, excluding metal ones. In SBG, just keep the Kataphrakt drummer with your footsoldiers, and be weary of archers. |

Holy Devlan Mud! I think I managed to get three or four, which is enough for a decent sized SBG force. The distribution of weapons in the box just really bugged me. |

| Post subject: | Re: Kataphrakts wargear a must? |
The weapon distribution is one of the reasons I got more Easterlings than any other troop type I have. Some of the swordsman can become pikemen. Archers can become Dragon Knights, drummers and now (with the spare items in the new box) swordmen. |
