A quick Photo Shoot of John's latest 28mm Border Ruffians. Figures by Hoka Hey. I've included an outline on Border Ruffian weaponary as well....
Calivar armed ruffian, checking the route is safe |
Some say what is the difference between a Calivar and a Musket, a musketeer has a stick to help steady the musket, muskets are generally bigger than Calivars and have a bigger recoil.
Another view of the above |
If a figure has a stick but no gun, then its a spear, unless its a pike - which is noticeably longer that a spear! If the stick has no pointy bit and is bent - then its a bow....
Close-up of Elizabethan, armed with a Calivar
If it looks like a gun with a wooden crossbar and it fires arrows, then its a crossbow.
Another Calivar armed man |
If the gun is very short and is held in one hand - then it is a pistol.
