28mm Seven Years War Russian Army - Part 1 - Infantry and Artillery

Hi All,

It's been a very long time since I contributed here. I'm still painting but life got in the way and I haven't had time to take any pictures.

Here's one of the projects that I've been working on. I started this a few years ago but decided this was the year to finish enough units to make a good sized gaming army.

Mostly Foundry figures with a few Eureka Cossacks.

4 Line infantry regiments - 2 battalions each
2 Grenadier regiments of - 2 battalions each
3 Observation Corps regiments - 3 battalions each

6 Medium guns
2 Light guns
4 'secret' howitzers (part of the Observation Corps)

2 Cuirassier regiments
2 Horse Grenadier regiments
2 Dragoon regiments
2 Hussar regiments
2 Cossack sotnias

Various command stands 

Hope you like them.

Cheers,
Mick

Wednesday Night Wargames

We had our first meeting of our Wednesday night wargames club this week. 10 players turned up and played four different games, which was good for a very first meeting. Here are some photos from the evening.

We used some mounted figures in our Dark Ages battle for the very first time. They worked out well. One rider managed to catch the enemy army leader out in the open and rode him down and killed him. The subsequent army morale test saw that army flee the field.
