Clearly the Poles need to face off the Swedish infantry with their pancerni and hajduks, and attack the Swedish cavalry with their hussars.

I would happily take those old hussars off your hands.

I was thinking of getting a Polish army once the lists are out.....after these pictures (wow is right) it's a cinch.

How many points per side was that?

What are the 1683 Polish Hussars equipped with ? Do they go Light Lance & Pistol like the Hungarians in WoR ?

That will make it rough for them against melee pistol armed horse right?

Not if their opponents are not steady - and that is where the Impact Mounted comes in.

If you disrupt the pistols in impact, they don't get pistol v sword, and sword counts v unsteady pistol.

Also in period they may well get better armour too.

Very brave for a first try. Wonderful figures (again).

Scrumpy · Post by **Scrumpy** » Tue Oct 05, 2010 8:31 pm

How many Polish Hussars can we have for 1683, and who does the best figures ?

Thanks ! Glad you liked the pictures of Oskars minis:)

We didn´t count any points, just used all minis Oskar had painted up....but after a fast calculation it would have been about 1100-1200 points on each side, depending on the grading of the units/generals(average/superior etc)

The Hussars are from Assault group but the Wings are from Essex...and the Lances from warlord, the paintfrom Valeio and they are all painted by my friend Oskar:)

Swedish brigades

The premiere game was a first try out of FoG Renaissance with Oskars stunning 28mm Swedish and Polish TYW armies.
