Yes indeed one more project are starting up:)
This time I have convinced my Danish friend Søren that it was a very good ideea to run a Scanian War project. I hope to manage to lure Jonas and maybe some other club member in to the project to...
We have decided not to run the big battler like
Lund in 1676 or
Landskrona in 1677 but to go for some more Low intense warfar in the nothern part of Scania i.e. Guerilla warfare by the Danish Free shooter or
Snapphanar. as they was called in Sweden
The main reasons was to be able to start it all up as small skirmish games using the exellent Muskets and Tomahawks rules. Love them but as usual I always try to find the Swedish angle;)
I have looked around the webb and there are several minis that may work as Swedes during this period, but sins I wanted to hold down the cost I decided to retrive my first Wargames Factory minis ever...
Plain marching mini from the box, as I want my unit to have the Karpus hat I had to cut down a grenadier hat to fit the bill, I hope it will turne out ok when painted.
One more marching mini there I just cut away the musket and promoted him to and NCO
You are very welcome to follow our Scanian War project at my blog.
You can find a Short re-cap of the war here
I hope you all will have a realy nice weekend !!!
Best regards Michael
