Don't really understand the period but looks a bit cluttered to me :-\
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Agreed !!  8)

Sadly.....I have to show my total ignorance again......But were the flags really as massive as they appear ?

From a quick squint at a Sharpie episode yeah they were.

"looks a bit cluttered to me" well it is Waterloo one of the biggest battles of the period.

The ruleset takes bathtubbing to the max, each base isnt a battalion, its a friggin brigade.

Rules available here dbnwargaming.co.uk its a standalone set based very closely on DBA, mine are in the post at the moment, looking forward to a rattling good read.

Probably, Phil. This is from the film.



As for being cluttered, the infantry were packed shoulder to shoulder to maximise their firepower. Possibly the units should have larger gaps between them, but for the DBx series of rules a coherent battle-line is highly desirable.

Lovely looking table and armies, I can see the attraction of it all.

nice little setup
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

That set up is crying out for a smaller scale figure.

Only some of us.

Others like me dont really care all that much, a guy on foot wearing a red coat must be British Line, iffen hes wearing a Blue coat then hes a Crapaud Froggy. Or as I prefer to call them Garlic Eating Surrender Monkies.
