Title: 1812 Retreat from Moscow - French Rear Guard
Post by: Saucy Jack on November 16, 2017, 03:35:24 PM
At the end of September I decided to take on Napoleons fatal Russian campaign - more precisely the Retreat from Moscow.

The is the second time I have tackled the period, the first ending with me selling my collections. At that time the rules I used was my own version of Muskets and Tomahawks.

So why going back to the project? Well two things, I regret having sold my collections as the minis are so full of character and Sharp Practice 2.

So for little over two weeks I painted up the French forces. The minis are almost all Perry Retreat from Moscow, 8 Murawski Miniatures Poles, the new Marshal Ney from Warlord Games and a single Sappeur from Front Rank.

But it is only today that I have gotten around to taking some pictures of the entire force.

Hope you like them - there are many more photos on my blog: http://londonbymidnight.blogspot.dk/2017/11/1812-retret-from-moscow-french-rear.html (http://londonbymidnight.blogspot.dk/2017/11/1812-retret-from-moscow-french-rear.html)
