Favourite poses

Here are some of my favourite poses for horse and musket period.

Well, that's outrageous!!

The last two images are clearly Steampunk not Horse & Musket!

I blame modern education and Social Media!

Harrumph!!

I know but they were so nice I had to include them

Well that seems to have run its course.

Interesting I find that 25% chose a "marching" pose (slope or shoulder arms), 24% chose ready or charge, and 17% chose present (either kneeling or standing).

Seems that Pendraken get it basically right. 

I think that we still need some "beating the enemy with the musket held in a wild overhead swing" - but only for the League of Ausberg.

Didnt know Leon had access to the Airfix designers of the 60's. From experience you keep the Rifle/Musket low when using the bayonet, to parry with it. Hitting people over the head is frowned on, due to potential damage.

Indeed; wooden stocks of government issued firearms are very susceptible to breaking! Thrusting the guns butt in the enemies face is much better for the weapon; it also has a nice metal reinforcement on that end which serves it's purpose very well in this motion!

I think you must have been beaten over the head with a few wild swings.  How many times have I got to tell you? It's Ausburg, you berk ...... 

(or should that be 'burk?'  )

Isn't the correct name of the town Augsburg by any chance...?

...and, in conclusion, ladies and gentlemen, it was at this point in the early twenty-first century that the Pendraken Forum may be considered to have started its mutation into another TMP. May I thank Professor Tango for inviting me to address you all this evening?
