Command The Pike & Shotte Ottomans From Warlord Games

October 24, 2015 by brennon

Warlord Games continue building on their Ottoman army for Pike & Shotte with some Command Sets which enable you to lead the Janissary into battle and some Casualties for when things go wrong...

Out of the two of these Command groups I would have to say that the one in red would have my vote. I think the characters are a lot more interesting although I do think some of the proportions could do with a bit of work. The chap with the Standard in Command B looks like he has a few problems with his bones.

When things go pear shaped and everyone starts to get shot at then that's where the Ottoman Casualties are going to be useful. This set gives you some wounded, dead and retreating soldiers.

More games should do this for Sci-Fi and Fantasy to show where a unit was destroyed. It would certainly add a bit of story to a tabletop and stop it looking so plain after the game is over.

What do you think?
