I think I have all of the Redoubt 3 Musketeers range, most of which are painted - I haven't painted the mounted figures and some of the seated figures yet.

I am now using the figures mostly with the Swashbuckler rules:

Thanks black hat miniatures for your pictures as well as the rule you play with.
Paul it doesn't matter it takes different people to make a world and especially the world of figurines.

Here is the rule "En Garde" published in 1996 in the magazine Vae Victis N°7, sorry it is in French.  ;)

Maybe I'm confusing my ranges of figures, but I have a feeling Redoubt also made a coach and horses.

Yes Paul, Redoubt did make a coach and horses reference CWX58, as well as a driver and coachman CW231 & CW232.  ;)

Some very nice stuff out there .This has made my quite nostalgic as I have a box file of nearly all the Redoubt figures  ( including the coach) ready painted in my "deep store". I think I got them in the mid-late 1990s. Almost never used, as I couldn't find a set of rules I liked. I was waiting for the 2FL's set that I saw at a "Lard Day" back in 2023 but they seem to have disappeared without trace. I now have a copy of Osprey's "En Garde" which I hear are quite good.

If you want more terrain pieces Frontline Wargaming produce some very nice-looking resin pieces which are specifically designed for use with the Redoubt figures. 2025 could be the year that finally sees me try and get my collection onto the table!

Thanks SJWi, I didn't remember FrontlineWargaming making scenery for the musketeers. I think 2025, I'll be looking into that.
Maybe you could post some pictures of your musketeers if you've painted them?  ;)

SJWi, if you have the catalog in a file, would it be possible to send it to me, so that I can see the figurines that may be missing. Because in the photos of Frontline Wargaming there are sitting figurines. Thank you in advance.  ;)

Calvin,  I'm afraid I don't have any catalogue to post or send to you. I will try to take some photos of my figures tomorrow and post them. I do plan to  refurbish/touch them up as they were painted maybe 20 years ago.  It is yet another project that has seen too little action on the gaming table. In 2025 I might also invest in the Frontline terrain items. I have been slowly buying some Warbases' English Civil War/17th century buildings which can see service with both my ECW armies and 3 Musketeers.

It's okay my dear SJWi, but if you have time tomorrow to take some pictures that would be great. It is true that when some painted figurines are a little old, they need a little refresh. We will be able in this new year 2025 to train ourselves in the evolution of this musketeer project.
I would like to wish you my best wishes for a happy new year and that your projects succeed.  ;)

I made them on my laser cutter - pretty simple shapes.  The whole Swashbuckler board is laser cut.

Calvin, a few photos of my figures. The bases need redoing and I will re-varnish the figures as they are a bit shiny.
