  2. Bill mate..well try I keep everything to 60mm x 60mm x 6mm so usually 18-20 infantry on two bases , 6 cavalry on two bases and a gunand crew, and of course the commanders and their dogs. I use the cote des armes textured pabasing paint "andy brown" drybrushed with bleached boone and static grass from Noch, flowers from Noch and Silfor clumps, soemntimes Noch..

  3. Reich Duke Wilhelm wishes he had consulted with you prior to fielding his army as your formations are a wonder to behold. He was requested Cardinal Honking Thirst, President of the College of Honors, to invest the Elector of Kopf-Schlager into the Ancient and Honorable Order of the Tankard. This award is for Heads of State, the nobility, and persons who provided exceptional assistance to the Reich Duchy of Beerstein...
