The Czar's forces are coming together, albeit slowly.

Brigade Pfennigbeir, commanded by one of Peter's German imports.



The two battalions of the Pskovski Regiment in green; those of the Kazanski Regiment in blue.







The Czar himself at the head of the Vladmirski Dragoons.





What I do love about the Russians is their colourful uniforms. Next up, the Moskovski Regiment, all in red.

Those are nice.

Might even go so far as to say very nice indeed!

What are they based for? It looks like Volley and Bayonet; they are very appealing.

They're actually based for my own Corporal John set. Casualties are marked off on the command stand - which is why it's deeper than the rest.

Thank you all for your kind words. Progress has been interrupted by the need to prepare for SELWG, but now we're through the convention season I can get going again. The first battalion of the Moskovski regiment is almost done and the Swedes have grown somewhat too. More to follow.

Here is the Swedish reply. Charles can now muster a full brigade of infantry and one of cavalry.



This Brigade Sparre, consisting of the two battalions of the Upplands Regiment (top left), the single battalion of the Ostgotland Regiment (centre) and the two battalions of the Vasterbottens Regiment (right foreground). They also seem to have acquired a 6 pdr. gun.





Cavalry Brigade Horn, consisting of the Smålands Regiment (left) and the Norra Skanska Regiment (currently missing a squadron/company).



This probably marks the half-way point for the Swedes. Another infantry brigade and one of dragoons should see them ready for the fray.
