The couscous certainly improves the bases

Don't know which rules you are using, but Bloody Big Battles' European scenario book has four linked Russo-Turkish battles.

Thanks Dour Puritan. I am aware of the BBB set. Right now we are focused on Black Powder for divisional games (in which each player controls a division or division equivalent force, Battalion being the basic unit). I have enough toys to represent a corps if the basic unit become the regiment (I talk about scaling here http://phdleadhead.blogspot.com.tr/2014/11/understanding-scale.html), and 8 divisions if the basic unit becomes a brigade.

I am also interested in using BBB, but this will have to wait for some time. If the rules were available in PDF I would grab them NOW. But they are not, so I got to get paid, put the order in, and wait the 2-5 weeks it may take to arrive at my desk . I want to note that I think that Chris is doing a great job, creating great enthusiasm, and that I understand why he did not go the PDF route, but man, how do I wish he did :p. Well, patience is a virtue!

I used my Russians a-historically to run one of the mini-game scenarios from Neil Thomas: Wargaming 19th Century Europe 1815-1878, and also took the chance to review the system.

Here is some appetizer



and the main course can be found here

Enjoy!

Great to see a start being made through play testing. Your square bases will transfer nicely to BBB when you get round to it.

Very nice

I put my figurines to use as a proxy for Crimean War Russians in an ahistorical Crimean Black Powder game. You can find the battle report and a review fo Black Powder here
