Hi

I have started to paint some Thirty Years War minis for a Club project I will run during our playtest of the Pikeman´s Lament rules. You can find more pictures at my blog. (http://dalauppror.blogspot.se/2015/10/swedish-pikemen-for-pikemans-lament.html)

Best regards Michael

The new units look great  :)
Can I ask,for the new rules Pikemans Lament,are there close order units/formations,if so do you find your round base system,which you know I like very much,can be problematic ? Just wondering :)

Glad you like them !

No problem with round bases or the 1-2-3 basing in teh Pikeman´s lament as they are skirmish rules, but if one want to have them on square bases or multibases that work fine to:)

A fine looking body of men indeed. Really like the basing which I shall steal of course, although being a bit of a traditionalist I will go with square bases of a similar size to suit my Bohemian Troops TYW figures.

A fine looking body of figures...love your blog by the way lots of inspiration.  

I also like your basing and was thinking it would make life a lot easier for a big game of Brother vs Brother ACW I am planning for 2016.  Could I enquire as to the diameter of the 2s and 3s bases please?

Keep up the great work!

Roo
