Help identifying this command strip...
« on: January 09, 2015, 08:30:06 PM »
I received a small high elf army today in the mail and it had a bunch of random stuff in the box including some bretonnians.

I also received this "high elf" command strip. I've opened brand new high elf command packs in the past and have never seen this model. Does anyone know where this strip came from?

Yep, there's that one and this one:

Only thing I changed was the banner top (used to be a heart I think) and the spear tips. Most infantry had two command strips, cav usually got one, while chariots and archers got none.

Thanks Dave,

I own 7 units of spear elves now and they all have the same command strip (the one you posted). Now I can mix it up a bit or use this strip for sea guard or something like that.

Last one for tonight.

I'm assuming these individual spear elves are also from the command pack? Would they have been alternatives to the swordmasters?

The commander on the left appears to be an alternative of the normal guy with spear (this one has a sword).

Hero is from the command pack. Speats are snipped off one of the strips.
