54,000 figures anyone?!

We put some pics up of the Borodino game that these guys ran last year, well this year they've moved on to Dresden with a massive 54,000 on the table this time. We dropped off another 15,000 Brits and Allies, so there might be some even bigger games to come!

Nice looking chaps in huge numbers!

Wow!

After flogging that lot, I bet Leon has his holiday in Bali all sorted.

Bl**dy hell that's impressive.

Holy FUNT!

And the 'Finish The Napolenic Range' can finally see why their particular range has been neglected!
54000/4.95=10909.9 packs...

It's a sweet madness, but more ground is needed

FierceKitty · 31 January 2018, 12:38:01 AM

Phew! (I do mean that most sincerely).

Nope, should divide by 30. ( if you ignore the fact cavalry comes in packs of 15)

paulr · 31 January 2018, 07:04:33 AM

54,000 / 30 = 1,800 * 4.95 = 8,910

Although I suspect they might have got a slight discount

Impressive

But what traffic jams

Zippee · 31 January 2018, 12:34:02 PM

very impressive again BUT as we said before he's doing the wrong bleeping campaigns.

the Dark Lord needs to use his influence to get them back into 1809 and later 1805

Looks impressive, but that table looks too small!

Like being in a book store with 54,000 separate titles on the selves - it makes my head hurt.

Can't deny the massive effort that went into this (and what's good for Pendraken is good for us).

And to think I can have eh same amount of fun, playing the same battle with 12 elements (bases) of 2,3,or 4 figures per base with a game of DBN! I think I'll stay with DBN! But that is sure a lot of painting to do - I am pretty sure they spray painted them to get that many figures done!!!!

petercooman · 31 January 2018, 05:11:22 PM

This to me shows the beauty of our hobby.I represent a unit with 4 bases of 8 models. Others use 30 per base, others make units of 500.

And guess what: We can all have a great time!

And although It's not the way I organise my games, I can still say it's a stunning view!

Seconded
