Phase 1 of my FPW project is now 95% complete - which means I now have enough to play a game of "To the Last Gaiter Button".
I just need to paint a Chasseur and a Jaeger battalion and some LOS markers and I'll be 100% finished.
I now have three Prussian infantry divisions, one Prussian cavalry division, three French infantry divisions and a corresponding cavalry division complete.
Here are a few pictures:

Really good. I really like the full army shot at the top where there are so many figures they just blur into the background, then the really crisp detail shots below. Excellent.
Fantastic well done
Wonderful !! 8) 8)
Looks very impressive. :-bd

We had a bunch we were selling, and I've got one copy left if you want it? It'd be £12 + postage, pop me an email through if you're interested?

Mad Lemmy beat me to it...
TTLGB is a different set of rules in that it is grid based. I was looking for a set of rules which could handle LARGE battles and found a couple of bat reps on the forum.

The pictures from that game inspired me to buy the rules despite my initial hesitation toward grid-based rules. One draw back of large games is that you spend a lot of time measuring movement, firing ranges and determining if you are on the flank of a unit or not. A grid-based game, on the other hand, allows a player to focus on the direction of attack, where to commit reserves, etc.
Very nice Shecky 8)
Very nice work, and an impressive line-up there. :)
Hi
The full army shot looks particularly impressive nice job all-round.
