1809 Austrians v Bavarians already in my painting queue.

(Likely to remain there for a while, but it's the thought that counts.)

Anyone looking at Silver Bayonet? Rules aside, some cracking figures for skirmish Napoleonic games

Well I do have some AB Miniatures British Marines and an insane amount of 18mm Ottomans (ie. my Muster Miniatures Stock)....so I could do something in N.Africa or Eastern Mediterranean if I teleport the British there :D

They do have plenty of character, but hitting a period and scale which is already saturated (Both Naps and Gothic Horror/Fantasy) they might have difficulty getting traction :(

I suspect with the rules and buying as a bundle, they’ll do alright.

I might pick up some of the Spanish and French to supplement existing. Haven’t decided on the rules yet

I like the figures, especially the way you can tell the nationality without checking :D
Looks like Joe McCullough has been reading/watching Jonathan Strange.....

I know nothing about the rules though...are they another Frostgrave "clone"?
