I do have a question about your Peasant Bowman: is he going to be a longbowman? From the graphic, he looks closer to a regular archer. Doesn't really matter to me either way, but given the era, a longbowman could be appropriate. The earliest mentions of Arthur seem to predate the regular military application of the longbow, but a significant amount of Arthurian legend was developed or compiled when it was in use.
They'll have regular bows. I have to admit that longbows would really make sense (even the models have them), but it just won't work out. No matter how sucky I make their stats, in dom3 longbow = awesome. This is a nation about knights, not about longbow masses with a infantry screen.

Also, anyone have any opinions about the backround? Should I tie it to the dom3 universe, or figure out something else to explain the Damsels, Grail & Lady?
