Why not? You could also add in a few Vostroyans.

Oh yeah! The Vostroyans seem a little TOO sci fi for my tastes.
I'll probably use BOB cossacks as well as West Wind ones and some FOundry Crimean War Russians.

@Rob_alderman:

Made for Vampire Wars they are some what more "Flashy" than the usual cossack: Which make them perfect for my Philias Frog VSF Army.

The series is on the large side of 28mm, so compared to fx Foundry you might have a small difference in figure size?

Yeah, my VSF stuff comes from all sorts of manufacturers. I am trying not to worry TOO much about scale.

Though I got the Tsar and the Personal bodyguard, and the guard are HUUUUGE. My explaination is that only the largest Russians were chosen for his guard and given a high protein diet.

I might just get the Vampire Wars Cossacks. Not sure atm as the copplestones are cheaper and nicer...

Scales are for weighing!

I don't care a bit about them.

As a nobleman from the Balcans Philias is under the protection of his own personal guard. All members are the firstborn set of male twins born by the seventh male twin born to one family, (sources indicate it to be more common in the old days). According to an ancient law reaching back to the time before christianity the ruler of Potsylvania has the right to call such boys his own from their sixtht year. The last boys where claimed by Philias Grandfather 43 yers ago.

Modern science deny any connection between being twins of a twin in regard to combat effectiviness, but military advicers world wide regard them to be a highly effective combat unit.

The brothers Dubrov og Nik.

The brothers Príms og Zámok.

Well, both my VSF projects are well and alive. The lesson by now should be never to start two armies within one system/world at the same time. Sadly, I never seem to learn it - it feels so good to just run with a new idea.
