I always paint the pikemen first anyway.<br /><br />I've posted earlier on my rules "Pike & Periwig" that are focused on the period 1660-1680 (Basically Louis vs. the Dutch--and almost everybody else. He had a penchant for those odds.) The basic units are battalions of foot (18 figures) and squadrons of horse and dragoons (8 figures) at a figure scale of roughly 1:30.<br /><br />Even though the rules focus on one period, they would be usable for earlier periods (late TYW and ECW) and good until then end of the Nine Years War.<br /><br />I'm hoping to have a full draft later this year that I can use for play-testing.David Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06229259148925201182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99962604511527341.post-48793205179082793692012-07-18T23:38:14.089-07:002012-07-18T23:38:14.089-07:00Get the pikemen now -they are too beautiful figure...Get the pikemen now -they are too beautiful figures to not order !<br />Start them and the wait for the musketeers will be easier...<br />BTW can you tell me a little more of the rules for the period you are working on?tradgardmastarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13116967655904601740noreply@blogger.com
