Huguenot Reinforcements

Adding to the 2mm French Wars of Religion are some artillery, skirmishers (enfants perdus), and arquebusiers.  All figures are from Irregular Miniatures.


The artillery can be used by Huguenot, Ligue and Royalist forces.
Artillery from the front.. mind your head!

Artillery from behind where you can see the parked train.

Enfant Perdus. These will be used primarily in Huguenot armies.

Units of arquebusiers. As the Huguenot infantry was usually deficient in pikemen, they relied heavily on arquebusiers interspersing them between landsknecht and cavalry.

Arquebusiers from behind.

Flags are based on recorded designs. However, without sufficent records  the colours are what took my fancy.

Now to reflect on organising a game to include these new recruits.

  6. They do look good; between yourself and Ray you will be tempting quite a few gamers to look at 2mm, I suspect! Maybe Postie's Rejects will put on a 2mm game at a future show?

    1. Thank you David. I wonder if Ray might do Almanza in 2024?
