Longbow BG's

[ravenflight]

Hi All,

Painting up my new WOTR army and I'm at the 'basing' stage of the first batch.

I'm wondering on opinions. I'm thinking that even though I'm going to naturally have 'dedicated bill' BG's and 'dedicated bow' BG's that the overall effect would look good to have some heavily armoured BILLMEN mixed in with the archers.

So, my thought is that I'm going to have about 4 or 6 billmen with every 8 stands of Longbowmen.

Additionally, I'm thinking about stakes. I'm really not likely to ever use stakes, but I like the visual appeal of stakes on the stands, so will probably put stakes in as well.

So, what are people's thoughts if I one day DO use stakes. A marker to say 'these ones have stakes down'?

Thoughts?
