Title: Cossacks
Post by: 17-21l on 20 April 2010, 08:15:26 PM
One for Leon - Im building a Pendraken Napoleonic Russian Army at the moment, and am a bit bored painting green, so Ive done a Unit of Don Cossacks from the Crimea range, nice for a change. Ive looked in the books and found that the Reds used a lot of tribal cossacks - lances, bows etc.. have we got anything resembling oriental type cossacks, maybe chinease ancient cav ?? if so any chance of a picky??

Anyone have any ideas to brighten up a drab Russian Army??

The Polish could do for this, maybe P12 - Mounted Cossack, or the P3 - Horse archer?  I'll try and get pics, but it might not be til after Salute.

17-21, maybe this pics could help. Pendraken pics are better, but if it is a helping hand at the moment...
