How is Mollinary managing to get so many suggestions adopted? Wish I had such influence.  ;)

Hope Leon has arranged a large truck to get all the new figures and vehicles as well as all the pre-orders and existing ranges to Salute.  Perhaps hiring it one way would be a good idea, then just a smaller van to get back to Middlesbrough (via Cumbria).   :)

Well, Ray, for the ECW casualty markers it is pretty straightforward - I made the suggestion, and offered to commission them, and pay Techno to sculpt them. The rest, as they say is history! And a year later, here they are  :D :D. Rather like the Austrian 1866 and the generic mid eighteenth century casualty, really.

I love the ECW/TYW period, I have a fair few 28mm figures for the Covenanter wars in Scotland but sooooo blinking tempted to do it in 10mm as the figures look lovely/ :-bd

Not wishing to rain on the parade, but the casualties look like three cavalrymen and one musketeer. The man without a horse but wearing a helmet and carrying a warhammer, or whatever it is, looks very much like a mounted officer. I would have thought a man in a pot/morion style helmet, as a pike casualty, would have been a better bet.

That would be a junior officer with a halberd. Used for keeping those less than keen individuals in the ranks and ranks nice and straight   :d

Many thanks to our communist friend (another discredited load of old social nonsense so those not in power can get into power by the use of violence, torture and fear - nice) for clearing up that matter and demonstrating that 50% of casualties amongst the ECW infantry were officers. That must surely have pleased the Levellers.
Title: Re: ECW Casualty markers released!
Post by: FierceKitty on 16 April 2015, 09:58:07 AM
Officers have always been obvious targets, I'm sure.
Title: Re: ECW Casualty markers released!
Post by: Ithoriel on 16 April 2015, 10:17:29 AM
Easier to fit a halberd on a base than a pike, to be fair. You could always sand off the blades and paint it as a broken pike.

Sounds like every political system ever used, but thank you for your insight.

Ian Yes I did and I'm still feeling grumpy, but on a lighter note I've just started a good SYW game down the club this evening. Will take some piccies next week and resolve to be more cheery.

EDIT: Quote fixed.

Rather than start a new thread I thought I would just tack on to this one.
Thanks Pendraken for doing these!  Really - thanks!
I love them!

For anyone who sees this buried comment I did a post (with pictures) on my blog a while back that discusses these very markers:

If they are in a queue they proves thier English casualties.  If they had been European casualties they would have been in a pile  ;D

Unfortunately there are a small minority who don't know about queueing. The other day, whilst waiting for passengers to disembark from a train, a mother and son rushed past me and barged through the disembarking passenger to get on. Knowing looks were exchanged amongst the rest of us.

I was once faced with a mob of people trying to get on the tube as I was getting off, I asked them to move so I could get off and they could get on quicker, but to no avail so I did what was akin to a stage dive into the middle of them. They moved then, and judging from their comments afterwards they were all English.
