I like how you're approaching things and the new units look great for bigger battles. Heard nothing but good things about Twightlight of the Sun King. I still have not decided what to use with skirmish level so will be interested to see your progress. In addition to Pikeman's Lament have also looked at Donnybrook and Scum of the Earth (although the last not real specific to Pike and Shot).

Views of the three regiments. I am going to need slightly larger bases for the larger Guards Regiments. Unfortunately Pendraken don't do 120mm long rectangular bases, which would be useful.

Urban, contact Leon. He will happily cut the MDF bases to any dimensions you want! He has the technology! 
(He also seems to have a small group of Elves that apparently enjoy special orders!)

I'll make the request! Many thanks. The rukes in TOTSK are based on multiples of 60mm so working from that, using roughly twice as many figs for the guards.

Started on the guards. Coldstreamers will be tge first, been doing the pikes. Photos to follow. Slightly different approach to these. Watch this space.

So, I have made a start on the Coldstream (2nd Regt of Foot) Guards. I have chosen to use Pikemen with breastplates as my sources suggest they were at least equipped with those although it is a moot point as to whether they were wearing them at Sedgemoor or not. I have chosen a formation where the pike block, with ensigns embedded, are fronted by the  grenadier company. At this time the Guards had companies double the strength of the line companies, qhich I could have ignored but decided not to. Thus the Guards will be on double sized bases with more figs on them.

Haven't yet done the musketmen, as I need to order a few more flintlock equipped infantry. They should be completed soonish.

Looking very good, Urban. I particularly like the treatment you've don on the pike shafts.
