I'm actually considering doing something similar to this! If anyone reads
David Eddings I'm considering recreating the battles of Vo Mimbre (from
Belgarath the Sorcerer) and Thull Mardu (from the Belgariad) with LEGO minfigs.
For those of you who don't read Eddings (first of all, you should) his fantasy
world consists of 13 countries. The two battles above are massive affairs
involving 12 of them (one of the countries is just ignored by all the
others). The four "evil" countries have general infantry troops while the
eight "good" countries all specialize in different type of troops (pikesmen
form one country, light horsemen from another, archers from a third, etc.). I
was planning to get a bunch of minifigs of each type to create the various
armies, having one minifig represent about 1000 troops. (The legendary charge
of the Mimbrate calvary at the battle of Vo Mimbre involved a minimum of
10,000 troops) I've kind of picked minifigs from each line to represent the
various troops, but I don't have my notes handy. In the end it would be more
of a good vs. evil fight instead of an all out melee but it would look
similar. It will take a while to get all the minifigs I need, but when I do I
plan to take many photos.
