Hmmm..

Great that you are doing French for VSF. I think the foreign legion idea might not be such a bad one though...they did certainly get about among all of France's far flung empire from Mexico to the Far East and had a variety of uniforms. Possibly (unless we are looking at a VSF refight of European battles) they could be the mainstay of a colonial VSF French army together with their Turcos and Zoaves (perhaps from the Sanwar?) I'm putting one together for actions on Mars at the moment.

Getting away from the historical I know, but I love the idea of using these models as VSF foreign legion. I'd need a spare kidney to buy them though... :(



a bit more than the old mule patrols!



But anyway, love the see some mounted figures on something like this...non steam driven! I look forward to seeing what you produce, French maids aside.

You know I am not much of a sculpter but I bet I could actucaly sculpte thouse guys! The beasts that is.
Also for  another idea of forces to test you, my Atlantians with there martian allies and strange tech will soon be riseing from the depths! ^_^
And soon the small county of Unterland will be geting up to no good and bedeviling stout hearted adventures all over.  :o
A vary nice report also ^_^

I am thinking of adding some women to the range as it grows, perhaps some in french maid uniforms  lol

Maids might be useful, but a couple of mechanics might be more of a priority - those steam tanks (and automatons) attract a lot of firepower and regularly need assistance.

On the thought of which, any chance of an engineer's vehicle, ARV/bergepanzer ?

Eureka has a set of mechanics for VSF vehicles.
Redoubt Enterprises has also a set of crew for steam vehicles.
