Size of 17 cent carriage

[Last Hussar]

How big a base does SYW10 carriage need? What if only 2 horses?

[JimLeCat]

Mine is on an 80x30mm base, which gives about 5 mm spare front and back and a little more at each side (width of model is about 15-16mm).

If you took off the front pair of horses, it would fit on a 60mm base.

Cheers,
Jim

Typical - the counters I am using are 70mm long!

A carriage once cost 17 cents?! Phew, with inflation it would be at least a quarter today!

You know the drill.

Coat.

Door.

Sunjester has one I think he has used only 2 horses to fit into the RUB trays

It'll go on a 60x40 with just the two horses.

I mounted my extra horses on a 40x20 to put up front if required.

Looks liek you've got a fair bit of width - I'm looking at a 60x30 base.

I was just going to take a photo with a 30mm width base so you could see the space when I discovered I'd actually based it on a 60x30mm one (with 20mm extension)!

Were 7 years war limber horses in pairs or in single file? or did it depend upon nation?

What team will you play; Duc de Renault or the Prince de Peugeot? I have the 6hp Comte de Citroën almost finished!

Well, that wasn't the answer I expected!
