Sorry to usurp the thread ... but ... does anybody know if GMB currently does 25/28mm Spanish flags? There is no listing on the Elite Miniatures website. Checked out Flag Dude, and there is a limited amount there, but not for all the regiments I'm doing/planning. Any other source of 25/28mm Spanish...

Clarence,

thanks for that, it's really helpful. This has given me the jolt I needed to start work on the two boxes I have that will be used as Swiss in Spanish service.

Cheers,

John.

Wow, he's a bit of alright. And yes, he'd also serve on my table too :wink: I have two boxes of the early French, and intend using them to make up two battalions of Swiss in Spanish service (dark blue coats) and two battalions of Swiss in French service (red coats), but having deserted over to the S...

Got home last night and was delighted to see a lovely little parcel waiting for me :D

Serious kudos to Barry, Clarance, and all concerned for a mighty fine piece of work. Can't wait now to use them in anger ...

Cheers,

John.

This is one of the areas that drew me to the rules when play-testing: no need to remove every single casualty inflicted, it's all taken care of on a simple battalion/brigade/divisional roster sheet :D I've taken some time in planning little vignettes within most of my Spanish battalions: whether its...

Gents, started work last night on some Front Rank Guerrillas for the next battalion (5th) of my Spanish division (ca. 1808), and was wondering if any light could be shed on the significance/aesthetics, or otherwise, of the following: several figures are sporting conical hats with three 'balls" (for ...
