The Loose Association of Wargamers

Got some Hanoverian Dragoons finished today - the Breydenbach Regt.

Very nice, mate. Who will you brigade them with?

Cheers! I'm just working my way through the Minden orbat. I've done the British cavalry (RHG, 1st KDG, 3rd DG, 6th DR & 10th DR) and these are the first of the Hanoverian cavalry. I've also just finished the Veltheim & Bremer Regiments of Horse. I might also do a couple of figures each for the single-squadron Gardes du Corps and Grenadiers a Cheval. That'll then finish Sackville's cavalry for Minden. Then it's some British & Hanoverian artillery and some generals and I'll have enough for a game. After that I'll add Hessians, Brunswickers, more Hanoverians and eventually more British for the later battles.

Sackville at Minden? Are you doing a regiment playing cards and drinking beer? It will be interesting to watch the forces build up, on your blog.

But you don't need Sackvilles cavalry for Minden....

No indeed, but the same regiments turn up for all the other battles, so it's a starting point for painting.

Granby at the charge for later huh.

Most definitely. I did him a few weeks ago and he's posted a couple of pages up-thread (a lovely model by Eureka, with his hat and wig flying off).

Aha, here he is!

Bloody hell he was an ugly bugger - even the horse has its eyes shut.....
