A review of my Napoleonic Anglo/Portuguese forces.
« on: 28 April 2020, 09:22:30 AM »
Having finally completed my Portuguese brigade I decided to get out my currently completed force for a bit of a review. The result was as follows;



The majority of the figures are plastic from Perry Miniatures, Victrix and Warlord Games. There are also metal figures from Front Rank, Perry Miniatures, Warlord Games, Casting Room Miniatures and a couple from Elite Miniatures. Most bases are by Warbases, as is the engineers cart. The horse casualty bases are from Charlie Foxtrot Models.

The main British contingent is based on the Order of Battle for Talavera in 1809, specifically the 3rd and 4th Divisions, with the Heavy cavalry brigade and one of the two light cavalry brigades as well. Plus of course Royal Artillery. The rest of the collection allow for more variety for other scenarios.

A more through review can be found on my blog at Jabba's Wargaming

Tony.

Gotta love a roll call. :-* :-*

Well done.

Having done a 'half way stage' for my Anglo Portuguese and French I'm itching to do mine. It's such a buzz to get to where you wanted to be at the beginning, even if that's not the place you want to be at the end - if you get what I mean; there's always something more, isn't there.

Scratch that itch, my friend!
