Two crossed flintlock muskets for the Spanish and Swedish battle stubs in the English wiki. In fact the Spanish could do with some earlier musket (Cortez!), while the Swedish Karolinerna did use all types of muskets, but come on, at 35px width nobody will notice the difference anyway :) Made by Halibutt in GIMP and Inkscape, modelled after some pic found over the web (Polish wiki I guess)
