Indeed I am but I've been struggling with family commitments, but I'm getting close.  They are an extension of the TtS! ancient/Medieval rules which should run up to 1600 or thereabouts, they might run a bit later.

Close enough that you need a playtester?

A great looking collection.  Lovely figures set off by those great flags👍
Afraid I can't take credit for those, they're by Pete's flags, honestly not cheap, but I think they're kind of worth it.
love the way you're basing those, and the trays.
Trays are from Warbases, as I'm a cheapskate I quite enjoy getting a 20 man unit out of 14 miniatures and a couple of tufts!

The French
As today is Saint George's day, thought it would be the perfect day to show off the final contingent - the French. The source material for the Fornovo campaign seems to suggest that a lot of the French troops were mounted longbowmen so perfect for Perry WotR miniatures, by the later campaigns and at Pavia they had adopted a similar formation and equipment to the Landsknechts (when they weren't just hiring them). The Swiss should be the most aggressive and mobile infantry even by the early 16th century when the quality of Swiss troops deteriorates.
