I've spent much of the year taking the Napoleonic plunge and building up Austrian and French forces.  Here is my French army as it stands today, loosely organized according to the
LaSalle army lists.



The Chasseurs sweeping past some Horse Artillery on the right flank.



Cuirassiers and reserve infantry waiting to deal with any breakthroughs.



The battalion of Wurttembergers has been joined by another to field a Regiment.  The mounted officer was made with a quick head swap.



General eye candy:















Next I'll try to post some pics of the French and Austrian armies facing off with each other (maybe even in a game.)  Most of the figures are Pendraken with Old Glory and Red Line in supporting roles.

Those do look really good. 

I am almost done with my French and Austrian Corps.   Although with Napoleonics, I don't think you are ever really done.  I know just for the Austrians, I will still need a grenadier division and some cavalry divisions beyond just the basic corps.

BTW, are those artillery pieces from the 1812 line?

Thanks for the kind words, all. I've never really done Horse & Musket before and I'm pleased with how these have turned out.

I believe so, yes.
