Some shots about the look of a Tercio, not really interesting for playing with that, but interesting for looking the formation

Do you guys have some ideas about tercio formation for WMM? (not for pics above but for playable formations/rules)
Ed and I have some and playtested, and we are quite happy with them. We do not want to go with bizarre rules or going apart of the WMM philosophy so the easy way to represent it is using a tercio (a third part, which it is what means Tercio) of arquebusiers per pikes. So the brigade is made of three units (two phalanx and one arquebusiers). Then put combine arms and schiltron. If the Tercio don't move they could adopt schiltron formation as a square so do not have flanks but (little modification) still fire to 20cm as arquebusiers protect the square.
Any way other ideas?
