Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
My agreement with all of these posts, and all previous ones along the lines of....More WoSS sets please!! This is an excellent range and can only get bigger and better.
My request has a caveat: Please ensure that all sets are historically-accurate, and maintain the excellent sculpting of the figures in this range to date. Hopefully also, future sets will continue to be released at a regular (and fairly brisk) pace.
Very much looking forward to the release of the British and (perhaps) French Maison du Roi cavalry soon.
And after that: some French Line cavalry and French dragoons. Perhaps some infantry with flintlock 'fusils', large cartridge pouches and brimmed-brimmed hats: these would then be good for Dutch/Danish and others, including early war French; and would provide a pre-WoSS (late 1600s) set as companions for the pre-WoSS French Pikemen….so allowing those who want to create armies for the 1690s.
Well said Chris; I have little to add except, as a dioramatist (new word?), I would love lots more civilians. Either helping; obstructing; cheering or just getting on with their lives.

….And, perhaps forming a useful addition to the WoSS 'Transport' (Carts) and 'Camp' (soldiers at ease, camp followers, servants, a tent or two, barrels etc) sets which hopefully Strelets will consider as well.
I agree with all the above suggestions for more French, BRitish, civilians, artillery, carts etc. and I would humbly add: soldiers from other nations involved in the conflict. Please let us have all the pieces of the jigsaw and then let the fun & shopping increase.
Great suggestions from all posters for more WSS sets, it is indeed a very colourful period and so many scenarios to game. If i may suggest that as the series is for WSS we need Spanish troops of all types plus Catalonians and Portuguese!!!
as WSS also known as 1st Penisular War
any one recall the sets by BUM/GerMan from some years back, good ideas but terrible material they used for the figures, so brittle
"No Peace without Spain" to quote slogan used at the time
Don´t forget me the austrians
and the battles Blenheim, Friedlingen, Schellenberg, Ramilles, Malplaquet, Chiari, Cassano, Turin, Barcelona, Villaviciosa ......
