Napoleonic French

French Artillery firing at the Prussian lines

French Artillery firing at the Prussian lines

For the period I am playing a lot of the French uniforms were standardized (especially for the Infantry). So a lot of these units will be used as generic units. At times I have painted them up as specific units, but they can still be used to represent others. It will be different with the cavalry where units often had distinctive facing colours.

      Still needs a lot to be done, but I fear I will not have too much time for that with my terrain plans for this year. But next year…!

        I’ m looking at rebasing my 28mm for Blucher and your unit sizes seem just about spot on!
        All the best
        Can’t wait to see what terrain is like!
