Some random photos of our first ECW game. The Royalist English invaded the Lowlands & successfully confronted a Covenanter army. theminiaturespage.com‌ ‌"TMP link The centre of the battlefield theminiaturespage.com‌ ‌"TMP link You can see the Covenanter camp in the background. theminiaturespage.com‌ ‌"TMP link theminiaturespage.com ‌"TMP link The Royalists were strong in Horse, the Covenanters in artillery….unfortunately scissors beats paper. theminiaturespage.com‌ ‌"TMP link url=https://postimg.cc/sGJKTBFZ] ‌ Some of the Covenanter Horse. Looks good, performs poorly. Apologies for the lack of a coherent photo report, but we were too busy playing! donald

If I remember, your group is very big into 1/72 figures, but for some reason these look smaller, like maybe 10mm or small 15mm. What scale and brand are these? - Ix

Quite the contrary. This was also posted on the Plastic Figure board but that post seems to have disappeared. Revell & ACTA are plastics (so 1/72). Nearly all the Covenanters & about half the Royalists are Tumbling Dice miniatures which are sold as 25mm. So, I'd describe them all as "big" 1/72.
