They look great, ragtag yet still a little bit more uniform than the not-so-elite units.
Thanks 👍

Tonight's game was a One Hour Wargames Scenario no.10,Late Arrivals,using Rebels and Patriot rules.
Russian forces had to negotiate a bottleneck to refuse the French the occupation of a village.
Terrible dice rolls on behalf of the Russians meant the bottleneck stopped them bringing their superior numbers to the battle, allowing the French reserves to arrive and secure the village.
Lots of fun with double 1's on ordered activations causing friendly fire on two occasions to both armies.
The Russians also suffered a setback when their officer fell as a casualty very early on in the game,shot in the back whilst running from the battlefield!

Nice pics of that fight.  That Russian Officer must not have been particularly popular with his men...

I don't think any of my officers are popular with their men,
not considering the number of scrapes they get them into. lol

Love the whole Napoleonic, winter, 3/2/1 basing and using Reb&Pat rule (a favourite)
just...WOW! well done, keep it up.

More wonderful photos.
I went back and looked at all the pages.
You have a great collection.
I also noticed that I have not post many comments.
(My bad)
I shall try to make amends in the future.
Thanks for sharing all your great toys with the rest of us.
