I'm not sure we need Aztecs for 1809.

Russians though, we will need Russians  :D

sultanbev

Cossacks! Yeah!
Dunno about Aztecs, but an 1809ish Spanish Mexican army is on my later shopping list. That's all dudes in bicornes and long-tailed coats though. Apart from the lancers in leather coats and shields. And the 1pdr mule mounted swivel guns......

Great to see this not-kickstarter being so well supported.....sorry won't be joining in myself but could be seriously tempted by some 1980 Russians down the track...... ;)

we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

Hi chaps,

Having done Adlers for the last 20 years, excellent range, my eyes are now struggling so am now looking harder at 10mm.

I was originally put off as the Nap ranges were rather limited but good to see some movement!

I will likely miss this event but will order a sample range to see if they fit the bill.

If so I will definitely purchase some of these ranges!

Good luck with it!

Forgot to mention,  I note there are already some Polish and Wurttemburg already in the 1812 range.

Are the new figures to replace or expand them also?

I also have a lot of investment in 6mm Adlers but started the slow process of transfer to 10mm a couple of years ago, the difference is marked, the ease of painting noticeable. And most of all my friends' ability to tell units apart, which way they're marching and their ability to pick them up has improved dramatically  :D

by way of comparison:

and 10mm PD French

I really do need to photograph more stuff, what I really need are a couple of clones one for work, one for chores and then I'm sorted :)

Hi you can check out this thread:

It's not a great image but this is the 1812 Polish with an 1809 Frenchman in the middle:



as far as differences I believe the 1812 range is Wurttembergers in shako rather than helmet - shako was introduced November 1811 IIRC (there are a number of compounding and wide-ranging uniform changes starting in May 1811 that substantially change the look of all arms). The Warsaw range is more update and completion to bring in line with rest of 1809 range - haven seen those pictures there maybe isn't as much difference in uniform depiction as presumed but it's very hard to tell - the 1812 fusilier depicted appears to be in long gaiters which would be anachronistic even for 1809!
