Blood and Plunder - Course set for Adepticon
Sea battle first list draft
So while I need some light to take some photos of stuff, the painting need to be directed by the lists and the will need a good over lap for transport purposes and as I need to paint the at least to a tabletop standard before the end of March.

12 European Artillery crew + 3 Pairs of Heavy Cannons
20 European Sailors + 2 pairs of Light Cannons
