Studio Miniatures Update
Due to family and work commitments over the past two years I made the decision at the start of 2022 to scale back on the ranges that I produce at Studio Miniatures.
Rather than just shelving these ranges indefinitely , I have over the past month, sold them to other companies allowing them to continue to be available (after a small settling in phase) and I'm sure to be expanded upon at their new homes 😀
The following ranges are now with:
The Medieval Mayhem, Horror Characters and Vehicles ranges - Hayland Terrain
The 1st Afghan War, Sikh Wars and Dead Through Time ranges - Bicorne Miniatures
The Street Gangs range - Tangent Miniatures
The NWF British range - Templar Wargames
The Atlantis Imperium range - C P Models
We will continue to expand our Survivors and Zombie ranges with Paul Hicks working on new releases as we speak.

We would like to wish all the best to the new owners of the above ranges and I am sure you will all support them in their new homes. 🥰

Thanks, it's good to know where the The NWF British range is going as well.  8)

Thank you for posting where the various lines ended up. I really love those ranges.

So back OT  ;) :)

If I were to have a 48 man Russian infantry regiment consisting of 3 Line companies of 12 and 1 company of Grenadiers, where would the grenadiers be situated if the unit was in column?

To the front?

At the front mixed in with the command?

Or some other place? Sides?

During the Napoleonic period (and much seemingly remained the same), the grenadier company consisted of two platoons: one grenadier and one light. The grens formed on the right and the lights on the left. To deal with this, I run three eight-figure bases with the elite company on two four-figure bases.
