I'll be there on the Allied right wing.

Yup, 1/3rd of Prussian 15th Brigade here. Not sure what we'll be doing on the Saturday. Marching up University Avenue at 18" per turn?

British 1st Infantry Division so I expect to be in action fairly quickly.  Hougomont in front and La Haye Sante to the left

Apologies if I’m Spamming these pictures between here & the Face-twits, but we managed to assemble about 70% of 15th Brigade on my dining table last night. This makes up about 14% of the Prussian infantry, just to give a sense of scale.

Impressive doesn't really do that display justice.  What the whole thing is going to be like on the day is mind boggling.  I would love to have been there but that's impossible.  All I can send are best wishes for what I am sure will be a memorable event for all who witness and participate in it.

I had a great time at it.

I was the fellow going around talking to veterans/wargamers for my research project (i'm one of Tonys Masters students).
