30YW Swedish (Confederate cavalryman), 30YW French (temporary mounted figure)
and Spanish Colonial.
On my painting table are the following:
16 - Crossbow 18 - Sword & Buckler 20 - Muskets
24 - Half-pikes 8 - Pikes 9 - Indian Bow
15 - Indian Blades 1 - Gun (plus 3 crew) 3 - Lancers
Only 4 of the pikes have metal armour - the other four are cloth. I have decided to allocate the former to a Spanish Imperial army for the Dutch Rebellion period. The cloth four will become a colonial unit.
Half-pikes provide an interesting problem. Given their "Irregular" nature, and the terrain they had to work in, to me they are like Ax(X) in DBM terms so should be 3 to a base.
(All conversions of musketeers)
Sword & buckler men are an easier decision - surely Bd(F) in DBM terms and therefore 3 to a base.
Muskets - I'm still torn between 3 or 4 to a base (any suggestions?).
Looks like this project is growing in an 'organic' manner in spite of its 'scientific' start. Next thing to deal with is the 'native' problem. Oh Well!
