Very nice Dave, but I'd prefer them with 1870 French/Prussian pics on!!!
....or of course with AWI British/Rebellious Colonials on :wink:

On another subject, have you seen that new book from Caliver on French Uniforms of the Crimea, bet Aly has??

He does say on TMP that he will customise to whatever you want, for a price.
I haven't seen the book you mentioned which is annoying as Caliver wasn't too far from our display at the Falkirk show yesterday.

Can't wait for the Napoleonic ones, I'm a sucker for bits of "bling" like these.

Found this on the web, does this mean that my Irish Brigade can claim the bonus for priests just as in the R2E rules? :wink:

My son has some similar type dice - damned annoying as some have the trendy graphic replacing the '1' and some replace the '6'!

I have been heard to make disparaging comments about them during games but he just smiles evilly (the way that only sons can :twisted: ) and continues on with them!! :cry:

:D
