Has anyone done an AWI squad based on the "Outlander" books?
« on: February 03, 2010, 05:54:51 PM »
Not sure if anyone has read these. They are a historical romance series spanning from 1743-1777, and covers two major battles, the Jacobite Rising, focusing mainly on the Battle of Culloden and then, the American War of Independence after they come the the Americas.

I'm just wondering if anyone has done any warbands or units based on the characters from these series?

Did you mean the French-Indian Wars; the AWI is outside your time frame?

American War of Independance is just starting (they comment on the riding of Paul Revere and the battles of Lexington and Concord) in the 6th book (which I'm almost finished) and is covered more in the 7th. Looking at those links, like I said, they are partial timelines. (I think up to the 4th book)
