Woo-hoo! My first paintings of 2020. Some proper Space Marines. A whopping 6 - count em - pints.

Oh yeah...points...

Sorry, there's a 10-point penalty for making any of them look like Valleyboy. So that's actually -4.

I was thinking more about a picture I have of 42 Commando on South Georgia but now you mention it...

[goat major]

Shouldn’t like them. But I do. Don’t know why.

lovely, but you really should man up RMD and do them in 36s not 24s

Nice figures Zen, my modelling fee is in the post

Yeah, but I don't play at 1:20 ratio though. I play at 1:100ish. So this represents a brigade, rather than a battalion or regiment. At Leipzig it would be more like 12 figures. In any case, a Polish battalion at the start of the Leipzig Campaign was only 550 men or thereabouts, so even at 1:20 a 24 figure unit represents it pretty well even before they started taking losses. By Leipzig they were barely half that number.

Also the Fighting 15s unit packs were 24 figures.

I've actually reduced the 1:20 ratio units in my collection (which I inherited from the AB figures Wargames Weekend days) to smaller units or broken them up and given the surplus away to mates (I gave the entire Brunswick Corps at 1:20 and Irish Legion to Dave Brown).
