Thanks Geoff. Very interested in any book about this period. Radetzky's Marches is a bit pricey, some copies reaching three digits, so I'll probably dig around for info. Google books and the Internet Archive are a good source of old publications.

Diego,

Pelase send me those titles. I can handle Italian. There's probably good information in German but that I can't read.

Cheers,

Nuno

I couldn't find "Radetzky's Marches" (great title, though!), but archive.org lists a couple of books by Trevelyan: http://archive.org/search.php?query=George%20Trevelyan%20garibaldi%20AND%20mediatype%3Atexts

Hi,

Created a group dedicated to gaming the 1848-49 revolutions. I found interested people all hover the place and decided that it was best for everyone to gather in one place:

Great!

Any French for the 1849 siege of Rome planned?

Shipka · « **Reply #11 on:** June 11, 2016, 08:50:08 AM »

None planned, as currently concentrating on Hungarian war but you could use French from Crimean Wars range by Great War Miniatures as well as French from Perry Miniatures Carlist Wars range I suspect!

Well, the Perries have the wrong headgear and the GWM with shako do not have any fighting poses. I guess I have to chop some heads

If size is not a problem look at The Foundry Crimean French not sure if they are suitable for your needs.

Once the German line is off the sculpting table , I will ask the sculptor to undertake a Hungarian regular wearing a fatigue cap, this csn also be painted as a Grenzer
