King Phillip's War.

Fights ranging from scouting conflicts to colonists assaulting Amerindian wooden walled forts in several hundred strong armies.  Puritan colonists and tribal forces.  
 

I can justify the Amerindian figures from the AWI/AR line but suitable colonist figures have escaped me in 6mm sized figures.  I can do the skirmishes in 25/28mm figures but battles like Bloody Brook, the attack on Springfield, the Great Swamp Fight, the Mohawk Intervention, Lancaster Raid, etc., really require more space and figures than I want to deal with in that size of figures.  If I can go 6mm that would be ideal.

any ideas about figures for this war?h

I used WEC 11 & WEC 12 for the Europeans. I'm also working on rules for the period that will hopefully just be a single sheet of paper for the rules "Ruse de Guerre". It will enable you to fight any small encounters for most of the horse and musket period. Basing will be standard 60x30.
