Sharpe's Siege - 60th Regiment

A few pictures showing my rifles from the 60th Regiment, and some thoughts about a possible Sharpe scenario.
English translation at the end of the german text.

Nice figures you've done up there.  Nice to see the 60th getting some love.  Well done!

A wonderful, evocative introduction to a wargaming sub-genre that I have never tried bit consider really interesting. I‘ve read a lot of Sharpe, but I’m rather a latecomer and for me the series will always begin in India (I know…). The Rifles nevertheless are on my painting table…Muskets & Tomahawks will some das be played with them or Song of Shakos and Bayonets (or whatever it’s called).

There are Sharpe Practice scenarios in the Too Fat Lardies  "specials" publications There is also the "Complete Fondler" with 18 scenarios. If you choose not to use  Sharpe Practice rules the scenarios are adaptable. There is also a campainn publication.

Love me some "Sweet William" for Sharpe's Practice games.  The figure you have from Brigade games is very iconic too.
