      They're pretty much the same, except that real winged hussars usually didn't carry shields and did carry many more weapons (a sabre, an estoc, several guns and maybe a horseman's hammer). Also, I don't think they often wore mail but in the Warhammer world it makes sense.

      That's the worst part about it. winged hussars are polish and it will never be russian. U can try as hard as you want and even try making fictional armies like kislev but that's the only place you will See it. I think that hussars deserve their own faction and if fusion would be necessary then it would be fusion with hungary, lithuania Ukrain and nothing more. Also when you translate polish tribe name(Polanie) from whitch comes present name of my country It means People living on fields or clearings whitch doesn't fit with ice cold mountains.

These guys were the models that brought me into the hobby, other options could be the Grail knights of Brettonia, or the Knights of the White Wolf or Knights of the Panther.
    When you move to the more fantasy units, maybe the Lions Guard of the High Elves, The Dwarven Rangers, and Ogre Maneaters. Though If you did one on The Saurus of the Lizardmen I think you could touch on a lot of their Unique Designs.

    Warhammer Fantasy: When it started, 40 years ago, I'd have said that it seemed quite generic and unimaginative, I poor copy perhaps of Tolkien's work spread over a world that could be said to be little more than a caricaturized version of Earth, but over these decades it has become quite possibly the deepest traditional fantasy setting in the world. The setting is now a masterpiece, enabled by this progressively expanding richness in it's lore, in all it's factions, cultures, geographic regions, characters and history.
    That Games Workshop scrapped all this for their new Age of Sigmar: a stale, hollow and artificial setting nearly as empty as Warhammer Fantasy in it's formative years... is difficult to describe in words.
    In any case, I would certainly endorse further explorations into the lore of Warhammer Fantasy by this channel or any others that take interest.

The Old WH:FB was very hard to get into and pursuing the hobby was way more costly (if I had to guess, I'd say a good starting army is at least around 100 EUR) than getting into it's Sci-Fi equivalent 40k, one of the main reasons why WH:FB didn't sell well outside Europe. Age of Sigmar scrapped most of the complicated stuff and made it way easier to get into.

    What made me such a huge fan of Warhammer Fantasy from the very beginning is how the Old World is like a distorted mirror of Earth. There are some who found this as lazy copying or lack of imagination, me however actually found it as one of its stronger qualities. Take the Winged Lancers for example. There is almost nothing to differentiate them from their real world counterpart the Winged Hussars. They took an already well respected and admired piece of history and put them in an awesome "what if" kind of fantasy scenario. As both a fantasy and history buff, the Warhammer Old World checks both of those boxes for me!

    In the End Times (series of dire events which lead to Warhammer world undoing), the last rota of Winged Lancers charged with Tzarina Katarina at its head against an herd of beastmen of colossal proportion to protect the very last refugee ship leaving Erengrad. There is a nice piece of lore which said that even if we don't know if they survived (highly unlikely...) since this day, Erengrad is constantly battered by a great blizzard. The chill winds are still blowing...
