Re: How to pike the russians

I stick mine in the middle base in front of the flags, looks nice and there is a practical element here, if they are spread over the front they are easy to catch with your fingers when moving them. In the middle they are to a certain extent protected. My look like the below. http://i574.photobucket....

Re: GNW Norwegian Flags

Hi, yes I get that but what I really need is to tie 3 particular regiments to flags that will look something like, perhaps Danish flags we can amed a bit to match them?

Re: Swedish Life Guard Til Flot.

I will have about 10 Saxon and 4 Russian, but chum Mark will have 12 or 15 Danes plus 3 Prussians and Dave will have at least 12 Russian so overall I don't have enough!

And that's just the foot!

Re: Swedish Life Guard Til Flot.

I always planned 12 Truls so I could have either 3 brigades of 4 or 4 brigades of 3. However I seem to have enough figures for 13 so.......

Re: So the swedes did use rifles

Some of the Cossacks had hunting rifles and used them to snipe during the Poltava siege.

Re: Redoubts at Poltova

Hi Truls, see what you think of the below, bit big but if you have a slightly lower redoubt with the sides about half the size and the length maybe 2 thirds? http://i574.photobucket.com/albums/ss181/rogercas/GNW/100_6504_zps1ap4drj1.jpg http://i574.photobucket.com/albums/ss181/rogercas/GNW/100_6505_...

Re: Redoubts at Poltova

Hi Truls, I would be tempted to do something slightly oblong, the long side wide enough o accomadate a battalion at the most and the short side just enough to take a gun.

Re: Plastic WSS

Hi, I have used these for Great Northern War Saxons and they are actually quite nice. I find that I need to add metal command figures as the command isn't as good. Lots of pictures of them mixed with metals (Ebor mainly as they are in tricorne) on my blog example below. One Warfare casualty figure, ...
