Ohh, ta. DbN units (around these parts) are 8 figures line on a 40x30 or 3 light or 4 heavy cavalry, or 2 if Cossack. Guns on 40x40. I only need a few bases worth to begin. Only plan on aquiring what I need rather than big bags of figs. If you have any spares in those quantaties let me know.

I'm sure I can at the very least get you a decent start -- I've got a boxful of extras from building my 1:20 units. Can you share list you're working from with me so I can check my inventory to see what matches?

I like Essex

Well with you and EB that makes 2 of you.

Oh you meant the company. Essex 15mms are nice, lancashires ones are ok too.

If you need some Old Guard I think I have the odd bag of Essex squirreled away. I think they are 8 fig per bag.

Does anyone do DBN with larger base or figure sizes ?

No, this is Purps. That’s probably NOT what it means

Looked through my extras - plenty of British infantry. Light BNs and rifle mostly, some French Hussars, and a bunch of Bavarians and other minor states. Happy to pass on any of these that may be of use to you.

I need to mute this thread, with newfound painting mojo, I am getting ideas.....

For 15mm DBN I would probably increase everything by 50% and go for 60 by 40 bases with at least 12 Infantry, 6 heavy and 5 light Cavalry. You could also get 2 artillery pieces on a base as well.

It would also fit nicely on a 3ft wide kitchen table.

It just so happens I have a bunch of 15mm Naps in the shed so may give this a try.
