Sweden - News from Zvezda Swedish dragoons

We're back after almost a month of silence due largely to the work of the new headquarters of Miles Gloriosus who have committed a very long time. But now that the work is almost finished, we take the brush and especially the camera, and pick up where we had left.
As promised, after painting the cavalry Swedish Strelets, which we have already discussed in another topic, we switched to those of the Zvezda and boy the difference is definitely there.
The poses of the horses and riders and the proportions of persons have nothing to do with those pieces of Strelets (unless you would prefer to put somewhat caricatured): Also the number of pieces for each installation (usually 3 for each of them, with the exception of commands) allows, with 2 boxes of all sizes to make squads soldiers with the same pose, which, if you like the effect is remarkable.

The pieces pictured are sold as Swedish Dragoons, but apart from the colors, may well be used also for the Russians, and I think for a lot of chivalry of the period. Of course they can also be used for the Cavalry Swedish line.
I made two regiments of dragoons and a squadron of dragoons of the guard. Guidoni I am absolutely speculative because, honestly, I have no idea how they were made.

And now, enjoy the pieces!

Here we are again, after a long silence, Caused by the works we are carrying on in the new seat of Miles Gloriosus Wargame club. Now that works are almost ended, let's take again the brushes , and the camera, and let's start again from where we stopped.

As we promised, after the Swedish Drabant from Strelets, here are the Swedish Dragoons from Zvezda and, guys, what a difference!

Horses and horsemen poses and proportions are really superior (at least, if you don't like the almost grotesque poses...): the number of the poses for each subject (3, apart from commands) permits to compose a full squadron with the same poses using two boxes (if you like it, it's really a great effect).
The miniatures are sold as Swedish dragoons but you can use them for Russian units too and , I deem, for a lot of cavalry of the period. Obviously They can be used for Swedish cavalry line, too.
With two boxes I put togheter ranks two full regiments of Dragoons and a squadron of Guard Dragoons. Flags are as Purely speculative, sincerely, I have no idea of \u200b\u200bTheir real colors.

And now, enjoy the miniatures!

- News from the Strelets Zvezda

The Zvezda has just announced the release of lla Zaporozhian box on the Cossacks. We have not idea what it contains, but to see from the figure, the figures would seem to contain both on foot and on horseback. As we have already written on this blog about the same sets of Orion, among other things excellent, the Cossacks torneno ababstanza useful because they fought in the Great Northern War, on both sides. It's not that they have a great sense tactically, but they are at least a very interesting color on the table .
Update November 10: On the site
Zvezda has also been published in the back of the box, so that we can already get an idea of \u200b\u200bthe subjects represented. The box contains 8 figures on horseback, by foot 15, plus 3 drummers (a huge drum) and a wagon with mortars and a servant. Very picturesque!

Zvezda has just Announced the release of this new box. We still don't know what exactly it will contain, but from the image on the box, we can suppose it will contain both foot and mounted figures. As we have yet discussed in former topics in this same blog,talking abot Orion sets, Cossack can be very useful, because they fight both for Swedish and Russian in GNW. Tactically, thay probably have not a great importance, but they are so colorful to be of a certain interst on a wargame table.

Updating, November 10
On the Zvezda site, the back image of the box has been published, to give afirst idea of the contents.
The box contains 8 mounted, 15 foot, 3 drummers (with a huge drum), and a wooden chart with a fauconet and a man firing it.

From the site of Zvezda :
"Zaporozhian cossacks

Army of Zaporozhian Sich was the most outstanding one among cossacks hosts. Independent society of Sich during all its time of existence was the source of distemper, but at the same time it was a basis for popular movements both in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and in the Russian Empire. Nevertheless both Poland and Russia had been appreciated very much military efficiency of Zaporozhians and had been used Them Against Turkey as a front line! "

We are all in danger! The deal underpins our democracy, established at the end of the Second War, it was cracked. The acceptance of rules convinvenza common policy among the three great ideals of our republic, that is, between the ideals of Marxist-class, Catholic-inspired popular and liberal inspiration, is giving way to political lobbies, the interests of caste, selfishness of class.


If you do not renew this covenant, or do not re-established on a different basis, but always improntante respect others, to democracy, the principle of equality at birth, equal opportunity and the rule of law, we will witness the collapse of civil society. We are conscious?

The collapse of the founding values \u200b\u200bof the republic, first of all the ethical value of the rejection of any discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, social class or political opinions or religious, can lead us straight to the abyss.

It is therefore important historical memory. This is why we must commit to never forget what happened during the twentieth century, and all the past, recent or remote, of our civilization.


Yet we are witnessing a forced removal in stages of our history, watered down in a bland broth, which are all toghether, makers, perpetrators and victims, spectators and players, depending on "what" Convenga remember, or - worse - the "how" Convenga remember. The public use of history and political twists its function, which is to create the collective memory of a people, a state, a nation, a continent and not be bent to serve the interests of part of the This political controversy.

this photo taken from my personal archive. It 's a picture that represents a ceremony of fascist. The photographer is famous Gislon, author of many other pictures that now allow us to see moments of history of the twentieth century.
I ask you all an effort to try to identify the leaders representatives. I have some ideas, but does not say not to influence you. I'd like to know if any of you can recognize:
- the leaders of the stage and the two people on the left of the photo,
- the historical period (or RSI Fascist?)
I help?
