'First Look' at the new League of Augsburg range!

[Leon]

A quick further update, I've contacted the SoA and they've updated the website now.

[Wkeyser]

Well any hope of filling out this range on the horizon, how about a christmas present to all of those waiting for enought figures to game this range?

Any news would be highly appreciated.
I bought "Beneath the Lily Banners" at CRISIS yesterday, so I need/want some men on horses and men with big guns
Keep `em coming!

[Leon]

We'll hopefully have some more news for you soon, but Clib's been extremely busy recently.

[Derbo]

Thanks for the quick update.
Guess I will make me a nice gift for christmas and start with the infantry. Barry Hilton said that he is planning to do some printed flags for the NYW with you guys. Any news on that?

We've chatted about it, as it would save us getting them done from scratch, but we've not got into the details yet.  I'll have to remember to ask next time I speak with him.

[Sandinista]

Any update on cavalry?

[J.S.]

Any update on cavalry?

second that. some news on the LoA range would be the ultimate christmas present to me 
For a very short moment i even thought of using the 28mm LoA range.. but hey, good things come to those who wait...i guess.

[clibinarium]

Some upcoming LoA additions;

Matchlock firing line





Flintlock firing line





Grenadiers advancing, fur hats





Scythe men.

[nikharwood]

Wow - very nicely done clib 

[maciek]

Scythe men.

Yeah ...
We need more scythemen, clubmen, swordmen, fishermen ...

Any news about cavalry or artillery ... ? 

[Techno]

LOVELY stuff clibby !
Do I notice the use of a mix of yellow (from green stuff) and black (from procreate) on parts of some of the figures ?

Cheers - Phil. 

[Steve J]

Really very very nice . These wold fit in nicely for some LotHS games . A future project of course.

[Wkeyser]

My order is ready

Great news!
Can't wait to get myhands on those.

[J.S.]

one small additon (is there a way to edit posts in this forum?can't find the button  ): the muskets look quite short, almost like carabines. I've been to the Bavarian Army Museum last week and the muskets used in the great turkish wars (which were approximately at the same time as the War of the LoA) were considerably longer.

[Peritas]

Hey Everybody


Could anybody tell me any ORBAT about this period and the composition of the regiments?


Thanks in advance

Best Regards

Could anybody tell me any ORBAT about this period

AUGHRIM would be good example.
I'll give below the general numbers of all arms with indication which Pendraken packs use to get them.
N.B. Infantry firearms were mixed at this era, so "mainly matchlocks" means that the majority of musketeers used matchlocks, but men armed with flintlocks could also be part of the regiment.

Well i guess the ragtag bunch of scythemen is meant to be used for the Williamite Wars in Ireland.
Patience is the order of the day... i mean there's not even cavalry available for Clibs far more advanced 28mm LoA range (where the length of the muskets is correct..strange enough; maybe that's because of the 10mm moulding process). Anyways, sooner or later we'll have a range as awesome as the AWI stuff

I haven't noticed the presence of scythemen on any major battlefield of this war. But I'm not an expert though.

There's a lot 28mm LoA cavalry from other manufacturers to fill the gap.

Do you mean this AWI stuff, that doesn't include any of Partiot Dragoons nor mounted Legions, essential for every battle fought in the South after 1779 ... ?
