I love pikes.

What an incredible series of minis! Fabulous!

Someone else said it here but, I'd prefer the pikes come from Tilea, Estalia etc and the Empire can hire them for their armies.

In this hypothetical and unlikely future paradise.

I guess it depends on how you see your Empire army in a 'historical' sense.
If you lean more towards late Renaissance, then pikes would be a must, if you, like me,  lean more towards late Medieval/early Renaissance, pikes don't fit so well.
And if pike units, why not also Tercios: pikes interspersed with swordsman and arquebusiers ?

Even if not, perhaps we'll see the return of Dogs of War units, and with pikes!
