Nah, I'm having to dredge it up from the back of my brain. I haven't done any reading since the 90s. If you haven't seen it, the Kronoskaf website is fantastically useful: http://www.kronoskaf.com/syw/index.php?title=Main_Page

It's just occurred to me that I referred to a map earlier that I then completely forgot to add... This shows the number of battalions, squadrons and grenadier companies present with each Austrian corps at the start of Frederick's invasion of Bohemia in 1757:

Workbench.. two major projects underway, 1745 Jacobites, and Ancient Germans, side-trips into various carts and scenic pieces, plus dwarves awaiting Dwarfcember.

I also got the Rubicon Comet tank under the airbrush and then realised I had another couple of 28mm vehicles awaiting decals and weathering. So I dug them out, and hopefully, they will be relatively quick to finish. Some detail painting, varnishing, etc..

Wurttember is going well: I've now got four infantry regiments and one grenadier battalion done (108 figures). Just one regiment, one grenadier battalion, a general and a gun-crew and cannon left to do. :)

And I found a lost battalion of Swedish grenadiers - I remembered that I'd got some converted Prussian grenadiers with milliput-covered mitre caps (to represent oilskin covers), but couldn't find them anywhere. They were lurking in the last bag of unpainted Wurttembergers. :)

I do like a snub nose stug. Some interesting looking vehicles there.
