Hey guys, was wondering if anyone has a good suggestion for spanish figures for my pirates to fight. I've read through other TMP posts on similar things and have several figures that are wonderful for town militia and british, even some dutch figures but am lacking in the spanish department…and the kicker is I would prefer Old Glory (need to utilize that 40% off!) any suggestions are wonderful I would consider foundry as well, but I'm looking for large quantities of men including command figures for characters and such. Thanks! DI |

DI,
I used the Old Glory Marlburian figures. Old Glory went with uniform descriptions for the Marlburians: instead of "French Infantry" or "Austrian Infantry," you get "Infantry in Tricorn Advancing with Collar" or "Infantry in Tricorn Advancing." I guess this means you research your nationality (Spanish in your case) or maybe the individual regiment, and select the appropriate figures, and paint them the proper color. In my specific case, they are "the Governor's forces," not necessarily Spanish, so I can't tell you what specific packs to buy. Grelber |

A personal dream, would I have the money and skill -or just much money, would be by headwapping to give a 'typical' morion link to WSS minis link : archetypical Spaniards as they appeared in the comics I read some… 55 years ago pirates-corsaires.com/bd.htm .
Paint them in blood red and gold yellow (sangre i oro), of course. Worthy opponents for the Black scorpion 'I emphatically never watched that "Pirates of The Carribean" movie' marines, and for Pirettes link link of course |
