Re: Is Strelets going to follow up with a Confederate staff 2?
I also have a feeling Asher is completely correct here. I think an absolute best case scenario for the Seven Years' War/French & Indian War from Strelets would be a surprise run of 3-4 infantry sets that would be Last of the Mohicans themed, so maybe one each for the Brits/French/Hurons/Mohicans or Haudenosaunee. But would not count on that, as we are lucky Strelets are able to continue their current lines Asher mentioned.
They have also been having major production issues, but HaT also knows the SYW is a very requested era and are planning a big AWI line. They might delve into the prior war at some point in the future if they have the resources, but nothing is guaranteed of course.
I do think it is interesting that in the peak production days of the hobby (2000-2022) 1700s topics were not covered more than they were. It is a very popular century filled with a variety of conflicts, yet outside of Karl XII v Pytor I during the Great Northern War and of course Strelets' WoSS line the choices have been pretty sparse. Even the AWI has struggled, though that is a very difficult conflict to represent given the diversity of uniforms for all sides.

We see some opportunities in North America without fully pledging into long-term commitment that 7YW would mean for us.
Those of us that are 50+ y.o. would understand what we mean by that:wink:
