....play with them!
So, having finished painting the British I have plenty of new units to baptise in the rolling flames of hostile dice.
I set up a fictional encounter for my Peninsular forces to battle it out on, keeping the terrain simple to aid speed of play – eye candy terrain clutter (like fields, bushes, scrub, etc.) looks great but it does get in the way of things.
Here it is the game so far:
