Been toying with the crimean for a long time. I decided to bite the bullet and buy both sides.
Mainly Warlord for the infantry plus great war miniatures to fill the gaps. I'll need some foundry as well
First 3 british infantry regiments

The light brigade

Cardigan at the head of the 11th Hussars

The russians! (plus british guard, heavy cavalry, artillery, etc)

Lovely

That's a whole pile of stuff to get through though

Thanks.
I don't think I'll do the same thing I did with both my WOTR and romans/barbarians projects though. At about this stage I set up all of the empty bases to give me an idea what space the armies would take up on the table.
I felt a palpable weight of the amount of work I had ahead of me, very disheartening!!

Great stuff! I love the Crimea.

Good luck, that's a pile of work, painting and basing. Hope you can maintain the motivation to get it done. I have similar projects in the lead pile that seemed like a good idea at the time but as the years went by just became unfinished or unstarted. AWI anyone?
