Catherine Reviews

The newly raised Smolenskiy Regiment.

I think including within the regiment figures in waistcoat looks OK.

General F. W. Seydlitz

The other day I decided to make Prussian General v. Seydlitz. I cannot understand why I have not made this SYW personality before given the many I have already made.
It did not take long to milliput and yesterday I painted the figure. Most enjoyable and I am now wondering which others I have missed.

Ottomans vs Cossacks

Just setting up a small game to test my Ottoman vs Cossack rules. 

Fortunately I will be assisted by AMG Forum members who have far more knowledge on tactics. 

A disgruntled Ottoman Pasha decides to attack a Cossack village. 

On the table so far are the Ottomans and village locals. A small Cossack army will soon arrive.
