Warlord Games has mentioned the possibility of alternate passengers and cargo for their Pike & Shotte General's Coach – what would you like to see?

How about a Napoleonic General's Coach

Any particular Napoleonic general in mind?

Based on the question as posted, the coach will remain the same coach; we are only talking about interior/passenger changes. If that is the case, I would offer three suggestions: one option would be an interior laid out like a commander's HQ (general, general's hat on seat, maps, dispatch cases, spyglass, sword, ADC taking notes…); a second suggestion might be something involving passengers in the heat of a romantic (nice word) moment, and my last suggestion would involve passengers engaged in drinking and gambling.

Several generic women in 16th and/or 17th century dress (and wigs as appropriate). It could be highly suitable for swashbuckling rescue scenarios.

Definitely Need Massena's coach at Wagram.

18th c. driver and passengers, civilian but also military:

(from link )

Of course if pieces are mobile they could be combined with items (and persons in some state of undress) from another period grin

Already have something in mind for this JL.

@Bill I dont think it is much of a stretch for the guys to come up with something to suit 2 or 3 periods of dress up to and including the Nap wars. I've sent the order off for mine with the intention of using it for early to late 18thC. The cogs are already turning as to some interchangeable travelers.

Of course JL would have his grand tourists naked and that pretty well has all periods covered grin

18th C. civilians would be natural targets for highwaymen link or, in the Caribbean, for pirates (they *also* raided inland viking-fashion) -suggesting the Governor's daughter as an optional passenger.
For some scenarios it would be nice to have at least the passengers duplicated in standing position -they would be of very general use, additionally.

Ideally the coach should be available 'naked' and several sets of (driver + passengers + accessories) available separately, so one does not have to buy 3 coaches if he wants to use one in 3 different periods?

PS: Dave: Naked? Only the women evil grin
Too bad the 2 passengers are molded together: the woman looks 'generic' enough to be used in other periods; hopefully in alternative sets the passengers will be separate minis, for increased flexibility.
