I would definitely be interested. With my current project on 10mm WSS (pendraken) and 28mm Napoleonic, the economics of 10mm LoA would suit me down to the ground. I am desparately trying to avoid the excellent AWI 10mm!!!!!!!
I have now completed the analysis of the 3rd line of Schulenburg's infantry and the results, again reading from right to left facing the wood, are: Bade (Imperial) - In Sautai but only 1 battalion listed. Possibly a second battalion Dahlberg (Imperial) - InSautai Taston (or Tastung) (Wurzburg) - Not...
I have now completed the examination of the 2nd line units. Before listing the information I have, I can update the 1st line data. Hercules - Isuggested that this could be Heruilles, but while looking for information on 2nd line units, I found that a Holstein regiment referred to was commanded by a ...
Barry Finally got round to trying the free ULB rules on a WSS scenario. Eugene's assualt on Lutzingen at \blenheim. I have a couple of queries. Infantry Morale If a shaken unit takes frther casualties, but passes its morale test. What happens to it? Artillery Fire Can I check that we are executing t...
On another thread, I noted that I had recently bought a book that contained info. on the Allied OOB and that I would post details as I examined it. The book in question is 'Maps of War' by Ashley & Miles Bayton-Williams and the map in question appears to be taken from a copper engraving by Paul Rapi...
The recent book published by Nafziger gives information on French infantry deployment and OOBs earlier than the date of the battle itself. I also picked up a book of reproduction maps. Included is one of Malplaquet which gives the detail of the units in the 3 lines of Schulenberg's assault on the Fr...
Thanks for the link. Most impressive. The uniform areas of the site wete also very interesting. The diorama suggests that perhaps somewhere there is a complete OOB for the battle. Have you ever seen/heard of one?
For any interested parties I have just purchased a booklet (62 pages) from Helion on the above battle. It is a translation by George Nafziger of a 1904 work commissioned by the Historical Section of The General Staff of the French Army. Pages 1 -40 cover the campaign and include full army lists of b...
Does this help? It was posted on another forum recently (not by me I hasten to add) "For the Dutch army Olaf Van Nimwegen (Armamentaria issue 30 1995 p47-60, in Dutch) writes that the socket bayonet was introduced from1693 and that it was complete by the start of the WSS, thus renderingthe pike obso...
I tend to agree with the views expressed and find the poor painting is not confined to the web. Many articles in the wargame press use figures to illustrate articles that frankly should not be used for close-up photography. I sometimes think that the standard of modelling has generally outstripped o...
