Ahhhhh, yes, holy heck that's a lot of figures...

I think I'd need to reinforce the floor let alone the tables :D

That's both impressive and somewhat mad!

I thought as a group we had a lot of figures, but clearly we don't.

Not long, he's already painted most of the Prussians we dropped off in February last year!

This was the Borodino game he did last year: http://gerryjelliottsituation.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/, this year it's Dresden.

Well that sort of purchasing power is hard to argue against  :(

I'm not sure what is scarier, the fact he's buying that quantity or the painting turnaround!

What you really need to do Leon, is convince him that his next epic period is 1809  :D

I've tried!  He's working through a rather long campaign finishing with Waterloo I assume, so I don't know if he's got any plans to go back to the earlier period once they're done.

Ah well, kudos to him I guess.

Maybe we should run a poll to decide what his next campaign should be  ;)

Sadly a rough calculation for Wurttemberg, Saxony, Hesse and Baden combined only comes to about 4000 figures, I would commit to that but it doesn't really compete with 20,000  :(

That's not a bad start though, if we can find some more people who want them we might be able to sort something out and bump them up the requests lists?
