I was sitting here one day admiring my Ottomans. I do that a lot.
Then, as is my wont- I started admiring my Renaissance Poles. I do that a lot too.
Then...I figured, well..who else can I collect that I could admire....hmmm well....someone to fight the Poles...and to fight the Ottomans........well why not?
So I started 'window shopping' via the 'net. I do that a lot too.
I was looking at The Assault Group website. I do that a lot.
And ..well, like magic...all these figures appeared. That too happens a lot at my place... ....they just magically arrive on my doorstep.

| The command stand- painted. |
The paints came out..and hey presto....painting happened-- that happens a lot around these here parts!!
 |
| Big Streltsi Unit - Pike and shot! |
 |
| Streltsi |
 |
| Boyars! |
 |
| Streltsi- shot only. |
 |
| The nobles- looking formidable enough to take on Poles and Turks!! |
 |
| Some Cossacks! |
 |
| Guns too! |
 |
| The whole force so far- and more to go. |
Very nice they look, too. TAG certainly make some excellent figures!
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith - they certainly do! It was the figures that made me decide to do the Muscovites.
DeleteBeautifully painted figures, John. I say that a lot too!
ReplyDeleteThanks JF- and I appreciate it a lot!
DeleteOh my!Lovely stuff!

ReplyDeleteThanks Neil! I am very happy how they have turned out!

Thanks Rich- yes..you know it..I know it .....time to buy more.
DeleteNice a fun looking army and something different 👍
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt- yes- I don't know anyone who has a Muscovite force...and am finding it hard to get flags!
DeleteLooking Good !
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil. I appreciate your comments!
DeleteThe Streltsi are extremely colourful units, once started of course one will need more.Well done.
ReplyDeleteYes- At least 3 or 4 more - just for starters. And all different colours!
DeleteA wonderful blend of nice castings well painted and a cautionary tale of wistful thinking. The Muscovites should be fun to get on the table.
ReplyDeleteThank you- They have some unusual features- and a mix of eastern and western troop types.
DeleteLOL love it. Stop looking at them! Assault Group do have some very nice sculps. i cannot blame you. Great paintwork as usual...
ReplyDeleteThanks GW- I can't help it...... I spend way too much time looking- and then buying!
DeleteWhat rules are you using?
ReplyDeleteIt's a home grown set that has one unit/one base.
