My buddy Chuckaroobob has finished another bunch of Tiger Miniatures Spanish Infantry to use for some Spanish Ameriacan war gaming.

Infantry with command. He took som liberties with the officer uniforms so they will be more visible.
The flag is from the flagdude.com

The kneeling models will be used as snipers

Last a couple cannons to stiffen the line.
Here is a link to the blog post and Chuckaroos more insightful commentary.

Very nice.
I believe the Spanish did not carry their colors into battle during this period but I like the flag anyway!
What rules are used?
Gracias,

The last time we played we used the Disposeable Heroes rules from Iron Ivan. It was a Game set in the Mexican Revolution during the American Intervention.

I don't know about the colors but it is stylish and looks good on a gaming table. I like playing games with well painted models and nice tables. If historical accuracy takes a small hit, I can live with it.
