Dark Ages (Citadel)
Citadel's Dark Ages range was described as "covering the late 7th Century up to and including the 11th Century." [4] It used the "DA" prefix and appeared in the early catalogs prior to 1983 when some of these figures were moved into the 'C' Series as C37, C38 and C39. The range was poorly documented by Citadel but did appear in some Ral Partha catalogs. The range contained a lot of variant figures. This page is a slow work in progress: it is best to refer to CCM when considering this series. [1]
