I had finally arrived at using my own version of "Principles of War" ammended slightly to fit the 7YW era. Just recently I have finally been able to pick up a copy of the PoW 18th century specific rules!<br />I tend to tinker with every set of rules I use and have written my own campaign rules to fit rules too.Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-90758005005667632322021-12-14T23:56:36.500-08:002021-12-14T23:56:36.500-08:00Wow!

A couple of my gaming chums have 54mm figures as well (mostly French Indian War & 1812 era stuff) which we've seen on the tables a couple of times. Reading some of the others comments, I do hope you get an opportunity to get them onto the table for a battle.Terry Silverthornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02873668652853883440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-57634254131658811142021-12-14T04:40:36.261-08:002021-12-14T04:40:36.261-08:00Thanks Willz, whilst the figures were never really...Thanks Willz, whilst the figures were never really meant for the 7YW, I think it was Charles Grant that made them an iconic fit and of course I fell for them too.<br />I must say though that I do wish I'd based them up a bit better !<br />I also saw a great seige game using these figures (in metal) at the Battlegound Show in 2017 by Lancaster Cellerman iirc, I was so fascinated by it and the chap running it that I forgot to take any pics !Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-83314522686013017412021-12-14T04:23:44.323-08:002021-12-14T04:23:44.323-08:00Another fantastic post of Spencer Smith goody good...Another fantastic post of Spencer Smith goody goodness Joe, personally the best figures in SYW, iconic and a joy to look at.

Perhaps you could do an army review and form them all up on parade for us to inspect them ;)Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14031648950206231742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-68431166455402752892021-12-13T08:12:54.857-08:002021-12-13T08:12:54.857-08:00A veritable collection you found in that draw Joe,...A veritable collection you found in that draw Joe, artillery more cavalry, and a whole collection of generals, excellent stuff throughout.
