Bloody Hell I've Finished A Project

An unheard of event has just occurred - I've finished a project by finishing basing the Imperialist Infantry for my Thirty Years War setup:
 
6 Infantry Brigades
1 large unit of outcommanded shot
4 bases to be made into small or medium shot units
 
These photos are a little better than those of the cavalry as the bases haven't come out as red.
 
Rules (in order of preference):
"To the Strongest" - I've got some amendments which I thing will work for this period.
"Father Tilly" - especially when Steve Danes has finished the latest version to accommodate bigger battles with 15mm figures - NO PRESSURE STEVE if you are reading this!
"Pike and Shotte" - which I'm increasingly unhappy with for various reasons which I'm not going into.
 
The figures are a mixture of inherited kit (mostly) eBay purchases and a few that I've painted up myself.They are all Minifigs. I still have some unpainted metal which is going on EBay except for the pikes.  I'll hang on to them in case I want to do some ECW command stands.

  2. Thank you chaps.
    I may not even have to keep the unpainted pikes - I'm thinking removable flags on thin brass tube over the current poles!

    1. Well saying as they're finished we could see if the "To the Strongest" variant for the TYW works - 2 Swedish Brigades, 4 Imperialist Brigades and some cavalry. It will introduce the "unattached commanders" as per the rules and some artillery too.
