Great stuff Ian, I bet doing them in great coats saves a bit of painting time?

Great looking mini's. You may have already mentioned it, but just in case what rules are they based for? its good to see the miniatures close up, well closer than I can see on the Baccus site. I seriously thought of ordering some just to have them, but as my lot all all designed for 1809 I gave it a miss, other priorities.

A few AAR's can be found on my blog. Still need to work on them but they seem to give what we feel to be a Napoleonic style battle. Once we are happy with them we will make them available as a free download. We are using the rules for the Waterloo game where we will represent every battalion, battery and cavalry regiment. Quite a lot of units LOL Ian

Well after seeing your French in great coats, I ordered a load not just of elite infantry, but grenadiers as well. Also picked up Guard horse and foot artillery. Idea being to put the French OG together. Elite infantry in great coats as YG, Grenadiers as OG. Cheating I know by not having to use a lot of thought in my painting, but idea being to differentiate as all my French are 1st generation Baccus minis. I'll also be ordering the new cavalry in the new year. Christmas present from the grandkids (even thorough I bought them myself, so can't wait for father Christmas to arrive.

Mike Sounds like a good plan to me. I run a secret santa from my blog so I all who join in are guaranteed something wargames related under the tree. I think 30 of us were in it this year. My wife does the running of it so I can join in. Ian
