Franco Prussian Bavarians update




Up to two 16 figure (800 men battalions) now. Not bad for three days painting. Is it?
Thinking about French & Prussians. Looked at Pendraken and MM figures. Like to try and use different or a mixture of different figures for my armies.


Have also been busy with a small 7 YW Bavarian currassier unit 6 Figure (300 man) 15mm. See them in front of a scratch built windmill below:

My newest project: Samurai in 10mm


For some while now. I have been wargaming with a computer aided miniature gaming system; Computer Strategies, "Great Powers".

This is a system that is purported to cover the period from 1820 through to 1900. In the European theatre of conflict.

It is a fully intergrated system for this time frame in history. With the ability to game land and or naval at any time.

Also included within its system is a campaign and solo gaming modules.

Although I mentioned above that the system was originally developed for the European conflicts between 1820 & 1900.

With friends, we have very successfully used it to game the Mexican-American war, Russo- Japanese naval war of 1904-05 and one of my favorite periods; The 7 Years War. with minor in house changes.

Onto my newest project: Feudal Japan. The reign of the Samurai in a scale of 10mm.

The majority of the figures used are Pendraken miniatures with a few minifigs thrown in for good measure
