    Hi everyone, so much is in the description. Just so everyone knows, a few videos might be filmed in a different location in the future, because, in short, life happened and things had to be moved about. I may talk more on that later.
    But, these guys are progressing. Hopefully in the near future, I won't get too distracted by Romano British. I shouldn't, but..

    Really looking forward to seeing this project, I love the Burgundians, really interesting history, and a great scheme for painting

      Oh yes very much. Its a very curious period and area. I do like the white and mid-blue of their uniforms.

      @DwarvenMoustache-ek3ok yeah it's very eye catching, all the company and saint banners too, and all the different Burgundian heraldry for both the main house, with Charles and his half brother Antoine, and the lord's serving them. Just an extremely colourful army overall

      @@spookari Some of the heraldry is something I need to research more on, but I'm sure I'll find a lot of stuff on it. The Swiss Burgundian Wars seem to be well documented. I know the Swiss had basically documented all the banners they'd taken off the Burgundians, basically keeping them all.

      @@DwarvenMoustache-ek3ok if you can get a copy of it, the freezywater, The Burgundian Army of Charles The Bold, The Ordnance Companies And Their Captains, has all the heraldry and banners in it, as well as lists of who was commanding at each of the main battles in the Swiss Burgundian Wars

      @@spookari Thank you very much. I'll keep an eye out for that. I think that could be very helpful indeed. Thank you.

    Should you be unaware, there is also "Warhammer Armies Project" as another (free) rule set to look at.

      Oh yes! I'd forgotten about them. Yes they are a great ruleset. Mustn't forget them again.

      Oh yes, this is only about half of the models I've bought. as well. And I'd like to increase it all by another two thirds on top of that so I have a full Burundian Company. So this will increase to about 200 cavalry and about 600 infantry in total. Then Richard III might well ally with them with his War of the Roses force.

    Can I ask where exactly did you get Charles metal miniature?

    • @DwarvenMoustache-ek3ok
      @DwarvenMoustache-ek3ok  4 дні тому

      Hi, yes, Charles the Bold was the free miniature included in a Perry Miniatures deal. In their army deal section, you can buy 3 boxes of of the late 15th century/War of the Roses era cavalry and Charles the Bold comes with that.
      Just to note as well, Essex Miniatures sell some metal knights and steeds that are from the same era and have some fancy armour too, so they could possibly be alternatives.
      I think I also spotted a 3D print of Charles the bold while I was looking these up as well.
