Great to see them in action

Interesting having unit labels at the back of the table, makes the information readily available but doesn't 'clutter' the troop area

it was one of those things that I only realised while putting the units on the table. I had printed them out to be taped to the base but thought why not have a dynamic OoB on the table edge instead.... worked quite well really!

Although these rules are sitting somewhere in a box, I've never played Ga Pa.

Time to get them out then ;) I've read people think they take some time to get used to because they do things a bit unconventionally, but people say that about ToTK too, and when you've gotten your head around it they work really well. I did not find them hard to follow at all to be honest.

I have two more rulesets I've yet to try out, ToTK and Beneath the Lily Banners, both looking quite intriguing, but Gå På will definitely be played again  :)

Sorry for the worse than usual quality of the pics, I'm forced to use my phone as the battery charger for the camera is kaputt atm :(

Two finished units, the Danish Grenaderkorpset (Grenadier Corps), and the Livregiment Dragoner (Life Regiment's dragoons):

They look good - the photos came out very squashed when I viewed them on my phone last night, but look fine today on my iPad

Still having to use the phone camrea unfortunately, but here's some pictures of the Fynske hvervede infanteriregiment. I've painted sashes in a light blue since the colonel of the regiment, Albrecht van Eyndten had a light blue coat of arms, and practice in the danish army seems to have been that sometimes the colonel decided the colour of the officer's sash.

I've previously finished Upplands regemente, but since they're painted in the standard blue-yellow with different flag I didn't bother making a post for them.

Thanks everyone, just wanna say it has been a great incentive for the project to post the finished regiments here :)
Progress has unfortunately been slow from a bout of covid. I was able to finish up a swedish regiment before I got sick:
Jönköpings regemente.

I also find posting progress in my painting diaries a great incentive, which hopefully others don't find too boring, or have learned to ignore ;)

Get well soon
