Here's a leader for a Cowboys'n'Indians scenario I couldn't gin up outside interest in, and thus abandoned. It's era-specific, but complete and free of any bugs I could find. So, if anyone else can put it to good use, God bless.

His scenario name is Col. Ashley Highpointe, a former Confederate (thus the color scheme) leading a band of hardscrabble pioneers. Militarist/Agricultural, dark gray, UU was a cavalry unit (I found one w/a cowboy hat) with 6(3)/3/3 +1 HP.

Two files complete the set. I am also posting a cowgirl advisor.

Now I have the sudden urge to make an American Civil War Scenerio. So is this fella era-pacific, or was that a typo in you first post? I'm confused

Yep, he's era-specific (industrial). Glad you folks like him.

Looks kind of like one of Steph's leaderheads actually. He'd make a good scenerio leaderhead, or perhaps even a epic one, if you can ignore the first two eras.(A medival and ancient age version of a cowboy would be alittle hard to swallow)

Thanks for making em. Could you do a Pirate Leaderhead by any chance?

An ancient/medival cowboy? That brings up some really interesting artistic questions. But if they can do it for Abe... I could deck him out in coonskin or give him a colonial aristocrat look.

I drew inspiration for his character from the abuse the Southern upperclass took because of the war, when they were all killed/imporverished/run out of town. He's an old-fashioned Southern colonel, stripped of his troops and land and family who's had to turn to subsistence farming and banditry to survive. Hence the gentlemanly wardrobe, but a gaunt and abused face that shows what he's been through.

A pirate? If I knew he'd find use in a public scenario, I could do an era-specific leader in two-three weeks.

Great leaderhead ... too bad we don't have any cowboy units to go with him. A Clint Eastwood or John Wayne type gunslinger ... Ah, well.
