Robin Hood Death and Taxes Set III – 3D Miniatures

This set of high-quality STL files contains a diverse collection of miniatures and scenery, meticulously designed to enrich your tabletop campaigns. Each model boasts intricate details and expressive poses, from the woven texture of a peasant’s tunic to the sneer on the tax collector’s face. The collection is perfectly scaled for 28mm and 32mm wargames and role-playing games.

Optimized for 3D printing, these miniatures are ideal for resin printers to capture every fine detail, while larger pieces like the cart and archery targets can also be successfully printed on FDM machines. This set provides incredible utility for Game Masters and players alike. Use the tax collection scene as a central plot point, the peasants as vulnerable NPCs in need of heroes, the herald to deliver royal proclamations, and the archery targets to set up a tournament—a classic element of the Robin Hood legend.

This collection draws inspiration from the socio-economic conditions of 12th and 13th century England, the historical backdrop for the Robin Hood tales. During the reigns of Richard the Lionheart and his brother King John, England faced immense financial strain. Richard’s crusade and subsequent ransom demanded crippling taxes, which were ruthlessly collected by officials like the sheriff. The sheriff was the Crown’s chief administrative and judicial officer in a shire (county), responsible for collecting taxes, managing royal estates, and presiding over the county court. This concentration of power often led to corruption and abuse, a theme central to the Robin Hood legend. Figures like the ‘Sheriff of Nottingham’ became archetypes of tyranny, squeezing the populace for every last penny. This miniature set allows you to recreate these historical tensions, portraying the daily struggle and simmering resentment that fueled legends of rebellion and justice for the common man.
