WIP - Project 1683- Ottomans

 Working away steadily on my big game for the end of the year - or maybe earlier (it would be nice to get it ready for the 342nd anniversary in September). I plan to have a small section of the walls of Vienna with a rather large gun battery facing it- and making the battery one of the objectives for the allied army; probably the Imperials and Bavarians. The Poles will be aiming for Kara Mustafa's tent and the Saxons and other Imperials will be aiming for the wagon park and supply area.

Arguing over who should be 'pitching in'


Before I put the figures on.










I still have some more crew to paint up but I think it is coming along nicely!!


I have also managed to fit in a few allied gun crews- they will also double up as Saxons for my GNW Saxon army.
Just need to add flock!


     The start of Kara Mustafa's tent area "The Turkenschanze!"

Still a long way to go.

                      The wagon park :

Just getting started- needs a lot more work , figures and basing. 

The Allied armies will each have an objective. There will three key commands for the Allied troops as well as the CinC.

CinC Jan Sobieski of Poland 

Left Wing: 
Duke of Lorriane
Saxons and Imperials

Center : 
Price of Waldeck
Imperials ( Swabians and Franconians) and Bavarians

Ring Wing
Jablonowski
Poles

I still need to work out the Ottoman commands.
