Great Northern War Russians

 So the Swedes need someone to pick on and these boys are the ones. I intend to get a few Saxon battalions- a change of flags from my War of the Spanish Succession redcoats and there will be even more for the Swedes to beat up. 

This is a nice little force with 18 squadrons of dragoons and 12 Infantry Regiments- all pike and musket armed. Plenty of artillery rounds out the review....now just to get them all on the table and fight the Swedes!

      Thanks Jonathan- I always like placing the bigger guns on the round base. Why? Don't know- I just like it!
