The Producation Line

Global Recession ? what global recession.

I have recently got hold of some 25mm Old Glory Prussians and Russians to complete my Allied Force (British\Prussian\Russians) so that should keep me going for a while.

Also I have been painting some Indian War figures, some 15mm Spanish\French and soon some 1/300 Spanish.

Some more games with Ion in Jan. The scenario was from the WRG Scenarios book and involved the French catching an attacking Austrian force halfway across a river. I took a big chance in concentrating everything on one bank as I wanted to see how I could handle a massive force in a compact front and also see how massed french columns would fare in assault.

Right : My final move - throwing massed columns into the mix while the Dragoons hit an austrian line.

Casualties were heavy (despite the fact an Austrian 12 pounder couldn't hit a barn door at grapeshot range over serveral turns) and I made some horrible mistakes in my setup.

My Westfalian lancers also rode to infamy by attacking an austrian square - needing 5's to hit and I rolled 3 sixes.
