Meet the Army of Boozonia

     The force is built upon the idea of a combined Lowland and highland force from about 1650AD. Using the army lists provided in Tercio rules and the Kingdoms supplement I constructed a force that blends the different nature of both forces into a (hopefully) coherent whole. The Lowlanders provide the fire base of artillery and steady musketry while the Highland forces are the shock element.

recruiting is still under way

 
  As things stand now the Army is organized as follows;


The Staff
         Lord High Constable  Commander in Chief   Rank 5
           3x Major Generals    Rank 4
                    6x Brigadier Generals     Rank 3

The Foot
        2x Musketeer Corps, New Model
        2x Pike & Shot New Model
        2x Clubmen, Equipped, Resolute, Enraged
        2x Shot Companies, Veterans, Flintlocks
        2x Bowmen, Veterans, Longbow
        6x highlanders, Veterans, Highlanders, Great Swords, Halberd

The Horse
        2x Horse, veteran Lancers
        5x Mossers, Veteran Lancers, Arquebus
  
The Train
        Medium Battery, Veterans, Mortar, Horses
        Heavy Battery, Large, Veteran, Mortar, Horses

     Given the turmoil in all of its surrounding neighbors Boozonia has begun a recruiting drive and hopes to add further units very soon. The army is built to operate in two halves of nearly equal strength; one facing the southeast and the other facing the southwest with the cavalry and artillery held as a central reserve. Preparations are strictly defensive at this time with an eye to protecting the sovereignty of Boozonia territory.

   
after rebasing I was looking for a way to amp-up the look without actually having to touch up the forty year old paint jobs, tufts on the bases helped with paint added to make it look like heather
