Gray coats, but with brightly colors cuffs.

Since this is really a group effort, with some 600 miles between Thomas, who did the Weyher regiment, and our group of painters here in Stockholm, it's going to be very exciting to finally see the complete collection come together on the table in Copenhagen - and yes, one couldn't ask for a more suitable backdrop for gaming with historical miniatures.

It offers a good integration of pike into the infantry, plus it has some suggestions on how to represent the Swedes and their special offensive "Gå På" shock tactics notable at Lund in the Swedish cavalry, while also imbedding the Caracole doctrine for the Danish Horse. We'll be play testing very soon, so I'll probably throw up a post once we've got an AAR on this.
