Title: 1859 French Grenadiers
Post by: Leman on 04 July 2010, 04:51:41 PM
The 1859 Grenadiers are great. This has been a massive boost to getting on with gaming 1859 (period and rules title). In the Liverpool club we've upped the anti and fight these rules using 60mm x 30mm bases. On the other hand we do stick to 6mm buildings, yet it still looks impressive. Can recommend Timecast and Mcgijo for excellent Italian buildings (they both do 10mm as well). Try www.mcgijomodels.it. Currently painting 1870 French lancers - no lance pennants, just how it should be - excellent! Incidentally - 1859 French Voltiguers?

We've had a couple of requests for those, so we'll see how many more are interested.  Do you have any pics of your games?  There's also a Club board here: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?board=25.0 (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?board=25.0) if you want to advertise your club?

The link to the Liverpool Club doesn't work. Was it correct?

It was a link to a building manufacturer.  I've fixed it, should work fine now.

Most definitely up for volotiguers - needed for aspects of Solferino, and it nis only a head swap with the grenadiers!
Dour Puritan.
