Oh how I wish during the War of Spanish Succession, the armies had a splash of colour on their uniforms. Grey, grey, grey and more grey.........Here we have 4 units of grey coated Dutch.
There were only 8 regiments of Dutch foot at Almansa and here are 4 of them from L'Isle Marais' brigade.
There were 2 Dutch regts Friesham and Welderen and also 2 Huguenot regts, Cavalier and L'Isle Marais' own foot regiment.
They fought in 2nd Line of the centre under General Friesham.
The figures are based for Volley & Bayonet although they are not so deep as in the rules. The figures are as usual from Irregular's 2mm range.
Those look very nice indeed. How do you find the rules play? It’s a period I have been considering for a while.
ReplyDeleteI've only played games in the French Revolution, which work really well, I'll have to change a few things for the WSS, but they should fit perfect.
DeleteThe grey must've blended with something...
ReplyDeleteDirt?
DeleteAnother nice bunch of mini figures Ray. At least in 28mm you get some colour variety in the facings....in 2mm, not so much!
ReplyDeleteTrue, that's why I have an oversized flag, to add that splash of colour.
DeleteNice work mate. This is going to look amazing on the games table.
ReplyDeleteI hope so Lee, I hope so?
DeleteAnother step nearer Ray, although being 4 grey unit they still look grand, nice additions.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, I'm glad you like them.
DeleteGreat work again sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteNice work loving the mass ranks even if you can't see their faces :-)
ReplyDeleteIf you squint you might just see a little pink face, Stuart.
DeleteThe grey will be a nice contrast to some of the other already completed units. Great work Ray.
ReplyDeleteIndeed they will Lawrence, thanks.
DeleteGreat work, Dutch always ready to go and hold your flank.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope they do their duty, Joe.
DeleteDon't know grey Ray. That will stand out on the table.
ReplyDelete"knock" not know!
DeleteLet's hope you're right Rich, on both counts!
