In my gaming group we've recently embarked on one of the CS Grant / Phil Olley mini campaigns (the Raid on St Michel one). I've set the 'campaign' in Ingria in the early 1700s, so it features Swedes and Russians as the opposing forces.

They're based on slightly long bases so that when closed up they have the same footprint as a normal BLB cavalry squadron.
