Re: R2E UPDATING & AMENDMENTS YOU HELP NEEDED

Hi David, A interesting point of view which I fully agree with!!! Battalion guns should be used in support of the battalion it is attached to, so my views are no movement and fire in the same turn. This would mean can't fire if on attack or advance orders and must move with the battalion. They can ...

Re: Basing Prussians

Mike, I hate to disappoint you :wink: but I am not a veteran Prussian Player but Your Enemie :D . I faced the same thoughts as you, but most of it went into thin air as soon as you know which time frame you like to do. I take it you have the Befreiungskriege 1813-1815 in mind. The normal unit streng...

Re: Att: Günter (or anyone else interested in 1812 Saxon cav

Mike, what do you have in mind? Westphalians are very well researched and, if you like a more static look, well sculpted. Take a look at Steve Barbers range for Westphaliens: http://www.sbarber-models.clara.net/main.html I did with his figures my Westphalien Guard Grenadier. http://www.leagueofaugsb...

Re: The raising of the Saxon Army 1810-1813

Redburg,

No, because of their french styled uniform :roll:
If You look for Saxons 1809 you have to use minis with double pointed hat.
As far as I know their are a few of manufacturers who makes such figures, i.e., Elite, Wargames Foundry.

Hope that helps

Re: The raising of the Saxon Army 1810-1813

Breaking News!

My sculptor has decided that now would be a good time to go official with
the Saxon 1810-1812 Range. Therefore, for all who are interested, here is the website:

And yes, Steve Barber is my sculptor.

Re: The raising of the Saxon Army 1810-1813

Günter – I really like your idea of the skirmishing Saxon Chevaux Leger wearing his mantle. Model soldier makers should make more skirmishing cavalry figures... At Eureka we would call him a “character figure”. I am afraid you won’t sell a huge number of him, but having said that, little bits of ex...
