Based up 8 command stands for the Irish Confederation and Anglo-Irish forces.....have to magic up some more bases from card for the two "extra" cavalry regiments before I can base them as Paul kindly offered me some spare figures he had lying around.

Included some mounted command figures from the slightly later AoR range as Clib's figures are so dynamic.   
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

Finished flocking and labelling 8 Irish command stands, having worked out who they actually are for the main scenarioes that I got them for (Benburb/Knocknanuss/Dungan's Hill)  ;)

Its Queens Birthday here today and I earnt my brownie points doing the garden yesterday so on to (carefully) cutting out bases today for the "extra" regiments and painting thatch and slate roofs.

A bit of thread necromancy here.....

Having sat on my shelf for 16 months I finally based and flocked 24 stands (8 regiments) of ECW style Irish horse and 5 additional stands of "transitionally" armed native Irish cavalry with light lance/spears.

I originally put them aside to finish once I got some more of our FK&P template bases from Leon, but I have forgotten to inculde the 4 extra bases needed in the last couple of orders I have got from Pendraken...opps :-[

Oh well, just have to add them to the next one instead ;)

In the meantime I have now got 4 x 2mm card thick ones cut out for them.  O:-)
