Some nice stuff there. I am pressing on with my M+T force- looking forward to starting play, it sounds like a great game.

What's with the guy with the hunting dogs?

He looks like a galloping major Ranger.

Nice looking game, also nice to see the redoubt French, they are a little gem amngst the Redoubt range and often overlooked. They also fit in well with the Majors minis

He was just out walking them and it all kicked off haha.

They don't serve any purpose other than a visual one. If i was a Ranger i would have my dogs out hunting for French. I like to put animals on the table. I have a Bear as well and will have Beavers in my Rivers once complete.

That's a cool idea. It adds character. I have some sheep and cows for my VBCW board, but I have yet to paint them. There is always a back log of painting on my table, and they are never that high a priority. Perhaps I should just buck up and get them done. I like the idea of a bear too.

Could easily be adapted for ACW as well. I was thinking some Bushwhackers raids but then i remember i have loads of other stuff to paint ha.
