Shipka, the funny thing is that mid 19thC used to be my speciality. I have lots of books on the subject, but not read them for twenty years.

If you were interested I'd be happy to chat about what forces you wanted to replicate and then put something together.  Drop me a PM if you'd like.

Now, if someone would do 1859 in 28mm I would be dancing in the street.  Zouaves, Turcos, Foreign Legion, Imperial Guard; the Second Empire in full bloom.  What's  not to love!
