Even in the TYW the Swedes fielded fewer pikes than other armies, apparently it was an unpopular job. Some Swedish regiments were 100% muskets.Colin Ashtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650235978313356607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467940965162601045.post-41005125673608749692016-09-12T06:59:46.152+01:002016-09-12T06:59:46.152+01:00Excellent looking game as always and a nice report...Excellent looking game as always and a nice report to boot.

It started off as a few WG plastics but seemed to blossom into proper metal TAG and other figures as I really don't like the plastics. Ok I have rather a lot but my figures of choice are TAG.<br /><br />The FRW photos should be up here tomorrow.<br /><br />ColinColin Ashtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650235978313356607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467940965162601045.post-46375330194665843982016-09-10T14:50:50.707+01:002016-09-10T14:50:50.707+01:00Fine AAR report and pictures Colin!
