Brilliant

so first analysis

3 TYW French, 3 TYW German, 3 Later imperial Spanish and 2 Early TYW Swedish (1/2 the armies) I suppose the surprise there is the Later Imperial Spanish but I think it has good options within the list and as allies, 2 Scots and a royalist to make up the Wars of Religion contingent for a total of 14 armies, surely an agreement for Scottish civil war battle first game it would look great, 2 lists each from cities of gold and Duty and glory and 1 each from Trade and Treachery, Clash of Empires and Colonies and Conquest. It looks fun, suprising how few League of Augsburg armies there are last year more than a third of the armies were from that period, as far me can't wait

see you there

Second analysis:
No full mounted army (Ottomans, Caucasian etc)
Majority if Infantry in each army should be on these type: 2 Keil, 4 warriors, 3 Tercios, 2 bayonets, 3 swedish brg, 7 S&P

Later Austrian Imperial has a LOT more quality mounted than you realize.

Yes, it's a very interesting mix. As for mounted armies Matteo, don't worry, I suspect a number of them will have more than you expect, certainly at least as many as the usual Ottoman!

I hope so, I'll have to do a lot of work in order to make all pikes stay in the hand baggage, I hope It worth the work :)

As opposition to my nearly all mounted and dragoon version of the French which has yet to see the light of day but will hopefully soon, Five 3's of Dragoons and 5 unarmoured determined horse seemed a bit brittle for Britcon especially when I have only played it once

Thanks for the vote of confidence Matteo, but looking at the quality this year, a top half finish will be good let alone forlornly chasing Alasdairs coat tails.

Alasdair
I've translated the post in the italian section but even if we find a volonteer the problem can be to find also a flight.

Other ideas ? players from other tourmenants ? we are the only odd ?
