28mm Milanese Army

[Leman]

Well, back on message with this lot again. Inspiration coming from To the Strongest. I've been in touch with Simon Miller (the author) and he has kindly sentt me his amendments for the Italian Wars, which are very interesting and include some nice little tweaks for the period. Thus inspired I got out my bare metal Romagnol pikemen (Redoubt) in their skirted tunics and ancient Greek-style helmets. Tried them out on some of Simon's TtS 15cm style bases (they are irregular around the edges and designed to take mini-magnets for safer storage and transportation). This is all panning out really nicely.

Out shopping in Southport this afternoon and thought I would pop into Wargames  and pick up a couple of Vallejo blues. Then I wondered if they had any of the Perrys' plastic late C15th/early C16th light cavalry in. Lo and behold there, nestled among the boxes of Warlord Games offerings, was one solitary box of Perrys' light cavalry: successful mission!

Excellent work old boy. Gotta love the Italian Wars for colour and variety.
