What would I like to see at a black powder match. My first thought was a breeze - a good steady breeze.  I was informed the question was about targets and target sequences. Humph!

[Catlow4697 568]

One very large dump target

good spotters 

a breeze from left to right

targets with the edges in contrasting paint

no rain

"The Target"

I believe your original answer remains the best!

No wind, or breeze in your face, targets of varied distances and heights. If you like an easy shoot-shoot smokiless.

Oh, come on.  You know full and well that there's nothing like shooting BP on a still, humid day.

 

Especially if you start with the shotgun.  By the time it comes to the 2nd pistol string, you are ducking under the cloud to find the legs of the target stands, guessing how high the target is and pulling the trigger.
