Accessories
I can only say this set comes with a lot of weapons and the two oval shape shield or larger shield which I prefer a lot more than the small one.

While on the top right is the horse armor, whereby we got gold color printed on it. I think this is the only set with the gold color barding while the rest are silver.

Animals
A black skeleton horse for the evil army and a white horse for the crown knight. I think the undead army blends well into the theme.

The knight armor are in the way of the knight and making it not able to bend to the front because the barding is in the way. While below here, is just to say that you can turn the horse into normal white horse if you feel like it.

Minifigs
As seen from the box art, we get two minifigs, skeleton knight and human knight. Their torso is pure blank and not printed, anyway the armor cover the blank torso for us. I've been wanting a knight since childhood and this set complete my wants.

Weapon Rack
There's two flag on this rack and I think both flags represent the Crown Kingdoms. There's nothing much to snap about this thing, just a weapon holder anyway.

Divider
Not sure what's this thing is call, but anyway it draws a line between those two that are jousting.

Completed model
This set do have an extra piece that convert your battle horse into normal horse but I do not think is a spare just in case you lost the the small piece. But anyway, this is a great set which army builder will seek.
