52nd Oxfordshire Light Infantry for 1810-15
« on: 03 July 2021, 06:52:42 AM »
Hello comrades,

Please find attached another link to my blog for the latest big battalion addition to my British army for the Spanish Peninsular campaigns and beyond. This unit took an age due to a new emphasis I'm putting on basing - that, and it's a 48 figure unit. They just take a long time to paint. I hope it's useful to some of you. I go into how I intend to play light infantry with Black Powder rules.

Really impressive mate, the square looks good, 8 company bases?

Cheers

I count 11, including the command base. Looks great.
