Title: LoA Generals for ECW
Post by: mollinary on 08 June 2016, 06:33:53 PM
OK Guys,

One from left field as I understand the Colonials have a habit of saying.  I am looking for a number of mounted figures, suitably energetic, to serve as pursuit markers for my ECW cavalry.  Now the choice is obviously quite wide, and I could just use the ECW Officer in hat, or ask Leon very nicely for a bunch of the ECW cavalry in Helmet with sword extended. But then my eye alighted on the LoA generals moving.  What do people think, could these be mad, careering ECW figures, or are there such glaring solecisms as to rule them out?   :-\  :-\
I await responses from the cognoscenti with ill concealed enthusiasm!

I think they could be made to work, but what about those galloping LOA cuirassiers with swords and pistols extended.

Wow, Guys, quick and helpful or what! The point about wigs is a good one, which I had not thought about, and the suggestion regarding the Cuirassiers is brilliant. I think that is the way I will go. Thanks for the offer Lem, but he has the hair as well!

Many thanks,

Mollinary
