What are the chances of a Napoleonic 28mm game?
Anyone else here even have any 28mm Naps? I've kept my Prussians from the clearout and they're safe under the bed with all my painted goodies. Just wondered if they're ever likely to see an Ayton or such? Todays email update from the Perry's with the plastic Curassiers on the way has made me get them out for a look today and now thinking of adding some Jagers.

I have rather large quantities of French. Jamie has British.

I have a load of Prussians and French but they are some way down the priority list

Only a few Prussians and even fewer French. The project keeps hovering over the ‘sell’ list and only the fact that they are Calpe figures and therefore gorgeous keeps them in the box. Maybe one day.......
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

Christ, our club has enough 25/28 mm wellingtonics to fight the entire war from Valmy to Waterloo. Of course this includes a brigade of Scots Greys and a combined Brunswick force sufficient to create ëin folk, ein reich" 60 years too early. We may be a little short on Potugeses, and we don't do Oriental pouffes.
Re: What are the chances of a Napoleonic 28mm game?
I've got French, poles and Russians but driving the former 2 forces for 7 hrs to Wellington in a car was enough of an undertaking. Even a Pre-Covid overseas jaunt for them would be an insurmountable challenge

We really need an A380 set up for wargaming in the air.

Just as long as it doesn't do that "climbing steeply then diving steeply" thing where everybody/thing becomes weightless.
What are the Brunswickers like - are they Minifigs, if so which iteration of the Black Horde to they represent?
