Wargame Rules

BLOG BACKGROUND AND WARGAME RULES
I have set up this blog for my wargaming interests in the Muscovite-Tartar Wars, Reconquista Wars, the Barbary Coast Pirates, and the early campaigns of the Ottoman Turks and Saracens. Some lesser known crusades will also be covered. Miniatures are mainly 28mm with a growing collection in 54mm. If my photographs serve to encourage others to complete their collections I shall be pleased. I will also be mentioning other sites with interesting collections on the above. Do join the 'Friends' if you like what you see.

I prefer to use my own rules which are kept simple and involve eight-sided dice. These allow for fast results with various types of weaponry. Morale dominates my games.

Field Day for My Muscovite Mercenaries (or Swedish?)

Although a fair number of figures have been recently completed I will only post them up when their flags have been issued. Pleased to have completed eighteen musketeers for my second 'German' regiment serving the Muscovite State. Being mercenaries, however, you will not be surprised to know I have some alternative command bases (just waiting for their flags), so these two regiments might just find themselves serving the King of Sweden. What do you expect, they are mercenaries! Also, my Muscovite baggage train has gained an artillery limber, and several civilian drivers have been newly employed. MGB

    1. Hi Robbie, I think they are still under contract to the Tsar, but thank you for the kind comment. Yes, they could serve in quite a few different armies with a separate command base.

    1. Thanks Phil, appreciate your encouragement, those old Hinchcliffe figures still paint up nicely, and I like owning a 'classic' army or two.
