Hi,
I'm working through basing some of my figs and wondered what the 2 figs on the right of this picture are doing?
Are they fighting or is one supporting a wounded colleague etc?

I assumed supporting a wounded comrade...
1) He could be doing the wahtutsi?
2) I think the chap with his hand raised is the Big Cheese and he is saying to the chap clutching his neck/throat "Don't be such a baby. It's only a flesh wound. Get back into the fight".
Do either of these help?

I used one as an extra casualty marker but was thinking of a generals vignette for another... but for that knowing what the pose is would help. :)
It does look a little like some circumstances which happened in my youth after the pubs closed. However, 2 drunks in armour seems wrong for a generals base and not that much in period - although the way I throw dice maybe it is right on the mark... :P
It is definitely a man of rank being brought off the field. It was originally sold in one of the casualty packs, but now, as it comes in the command pack, is useful for a wounded general marker.
And there was me thinking it was a lost form of wrestling...
