Ed of Hesse Fedora asked in the last post how many figures I'll be painting in my project towards a Big Battalions game at the 2012 Bayou Wars convention. I've made up a painting schema so I can track my progress. From that schema I have the following troops and equipment to paint. These figures include some of the figures I'll be painting for the French & Indian Wars game I'll be running at the 2011 Bayou Wars convention.
Britanno-Germanian
2 mounted officers
476 infantry
119 cavalry
52 gunners, 10 guns, and 8 limbers (each with 1 or 2 horses plus a drover)
Gallo-Imperium
4 mounted officers
528 infantry
120 cavalry
51 gunners, 6 guns, and 6 limbers ( each with 1 or 2 horses plus a drover)
If I can acquire the appropriate Miniature Figurines Seven Years War figures at not too high a price, I'll paint the following additional forces:
Britanno-Germanian
2 mounted officers
24 infantry
48 cavalry
Gallo-Imperium
36 cavalry
That, Jim, is a lot of figures.

Indeed - but so promising!
ReplyDeleteNot a single Free Corps or Legion in 'original' uniforms of Col. Campbell's own design?
Jeff -- Yes it is, but that's why I'm starting so early.
ReplyDeleteJean-Louis -- Campbell's Mercenary Highland Legion (in the pay of Carpania) will add 24 infantry, 16 cavalry, and 3 guns with crews. Plus Carpania will add a second company to the Warsteiner Freikorps.

Wow! That will take some real discipline, but will look marvelous.
