Because this (in Sulu/Brunei) bleeds over into as late as the 1870's I will post it here.
I asked on another part of LAF:
Expanding my large skirmish/small raid forces for Spanish versus "Natives" (Moros, Noth American SouthWest and SouthEast Indians,) in the late 1500's thru about 1699 and looking for more figures. I have some Foundry Elizabethean Spanish (close enough for early period.) Edit: Sulu actions continue thru this period...
Need some ideas for figures for later in the periods - raids from and to Sulu/Brunei mostly, Pueblo revolt is covered (I have many Soldaos de Cuera,) and I am thinking they could double for SouthWest exploration/doomed settlements in Florida and the SouthEast - I am using later period Mexican civilians for now for charges to be protected until/if I can find better civilian figures.
My research shows fashion in Europe changes slowly until French fashions begin to supplant Spanish Fashion with the rise of the Sun King but I am unsure when (if) European in military fashion would affect styles in the Spanish colonies.
Once we get into the California Mission period I have Presidials to chase horse thieves and run-aways (and Zorro!)
Suggestions?
Gracias,
Glenn
