Although the Gateway cavalry's land speed record seems to have stood the test of time pretty well.

Re: Valleyboy's ECW Project
Just a quick update - I'm just staying with the outlaws at the moment on a trip back home to combine with Partizan. I was trying to be low key and not have too many parcels arrive there for collection and found my 2 dwarfed by the 5 parcels my wife had arranged to be sent there!
Not knowing exactly what I'm planning to buy i decided to see what the Warlord plastic cavalry sets were like. I have some from Empress, Bicorne and First Corps and bought a box of Warlord thinking that I'll need lots of cavalry - using these to make a good few units is probably a good way of bulking out the collection while keeping down the cost
I finished basing these the day before leaving NZ
While they're not particularly fantastic or inspiring figures they're decent enough I think - a consideration when you're attempting to build both sides and its not the only project!

They have turned out well for plaaastic figures.
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

Re: Valleyboy's ECW Project
They're very nice. Budget-priced or not, I can't see why they wouldn't shine on any wargames' table.

Re: Valleyboy's ECW Project
Very nice looking cavalry, I would really like to do ECW but I have to force myself not to buy any figures.
Thanks for sharing the eye candy for my ECW fix.
