Langezsalza in 2mm

[Leman]

Initially a WIP photo as some interest has been raised concerning 2mm. I decided to give this a go in 2mm as I want to play out some of the 1866 battles quite soon, and this seemed the quickest way to do it as I am currently working on SYW stuff in 10mm. Just one photo showing one base of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha allies of the Prussians:

Bear in mind that these are viewed from at least 2'-3' when playing so not much detail needed - hence the penny to give an idea of scale.

Excellent work old chap. Knowing how small these are you've done an excellent job on those flags!

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Prince Albert would be proud!

[Leman]

I wonder if Mrs Battenberg would be equally pleased?

[d_Guy]

Wow! Great looking flags, Leman.

[Subedai]

They look good. I've recently been in contact with that nice Mr Kay about some 2mm.

You helped me with my info for my 6mm FPW and now look what you have started!

It's easy to go off people you know.

We'll need a 2mm sub-sub-forum soon 

Cheers!

Just wanted to ask which code these are, RBG12 3-rank Forlorn Hope?

From the picture they look like they might work rotated 90^o as a warband/shield wall.  What do you think?

Cheers!

EDIT: I've assumed they're marching left to right in the pictures because of the direction of the flags and the alignment of the base!  I've just realised this may not be necessarily the case...

The figures are BG1 - 20 figures in two ranks with flag from the Horse and Musket range. BG39 is the same without the flag. They are supplied in groups of three, so I have used one pack per base. I also have some bases with one line inf base and two skirmish bases to represent a divisional/brigade ability to put out skirmishers. RBG codes are the Renaissance figures - I haven't actually seen RBG 12.

Okay, cool, thanks.

So they are facing towards the short edge of the base?

Still remaining within the '2mm' parameters of the thread -just. Has anybody got any pics of the Irregular Renaissance range? In particular the pike and musket blocks. I'm asking because I am wondering if it is possible to cut the muskets away from the pikes to make larger blocks of each type.

[Ithoriel]

I've just got confirmation from Ian that my 2mm Renaissance stuff is on it's way.

I'm planning to use a 30-shot/ 15-pike block with a 15-pike block glued on behind as a 60 man unit of Spanish militia, a tercio as Spanish regulars and the forlorn hope as English cuthroats ... err sailors. Plus some ancient period bows for the native tribesmen used alongside the Spanish militia.

I'll post some pics when I get them.
