The battle of Louvain 1792.
« on: November 12, 2019, 10:39:59 AM »
I have blatantly pinched Chris's brilliant photographs of a French Revolutionary encounter at the Boarder Reivers club from a couple of weeks ago using my 28mm collection. A fab encounter  and a near run win for the French.















Stacks, and I mean stacks more photographs here:

Hope you enjoy folks,
Dave.

A beautiful table set up and perfectly painted minis! What's not to like?

Thanks very much guys, a hefty mixture of figures here, Elite, Old Glory Trent, Eureka and The Emperors Toad miniatures (a newish range covering the French Revolutionary wars and expanding as we speak).

What a visually magnificent game, so much so It’s pushed me over to finally invest in this period!
The Levee en Masse was a great price for 6 battalions, plus some grenadiers to bring them up to a 30 figure battalion.
Quick questions how do they compare to the Eureka sculpts for height & stature?

Thanks Nick,? Height wise fine but I very rarely mix figures from different manufacturers in the same units. Keep them in separate units and you'll be fine. The only ones I had bother with were the Elite cavalry. There figures are 30mm really , the infantry are fine but cavalry were too much, I ended up selling them and replacing the units with Eureka.
