Field of Glory Renaissance Battle

It's been a slow going for me painting my 30 years of war miniatures. A lot of other projects have jumped in the front of the painting queue.

Jesper and Dan has, however, been getting into playing some battles. The rules are on the heavy side and I can understand it takes a long time before the games plays smoothly.

Time for some Pike and Shot.

A discussions about the coolness of pikes at Tinsoldatens facebook page got a group of now 6 getting into a new period. The 30 years war. A rarely played period when handheld firearms was coming of age but still support by pikes.

We went for the Field of Glory ruleset, possible to play small bring your army battles, but the goal is to get to replay the great battles of the war.

The miniatures for the period mostly are genetic, but I chose collecting the French a late comer in TYW.
