Title: War of 1812- Miniatures and a book
Post by: Koppi on July 22, 2018, 09:35:37 AM

It started with a book and a film, that I saw years ago. Then I found the different miniatures and now, here is my report.
Blogpost in german and english.

I always feel the pull of the war of 1812. Ive been building a Peninsula British force for Sharp Practice and I can see myself getting some Americans as an alternative for fighting the French. Im not sure if the British uniforms would be anachronistic but I can live with that.
