Hello, Marine0846.

At the moment we have a host of arround 40 cossacks for the game, also two sledge guns from Westfalia.
While waiting for milicia from the Perrys, as well as russian Jaegers, we use some from Foundry and some from Front Rank miniatures.
Also we have some russian cuirassiers as conversions in winter coats.
Still on the painting table are some french horsemen and some civilians and a conversion of the gringos 40s Murat.
Regards,
G.

Oh boy, that's so beautiful that it hurts!

Just drop by and we'll see if there is a free slot.

I need a slot! I need a slot!

[Gonvalon]

Hello, Prof.

The admiral told a lot about you.
There should be a slot for you.   Or two ...   Itīs more fun to play in the campaign modus
Have you any special preferences?
We will bring several scenarios.

Regards,
G.

Gonvalon,

Thank you very much for your reply.
I have some of the old Foundry Cossacks,
I have been holding on for years to do a game of the retreat.
The Perry figures are just outstanding.
I have played around with some Perrys and green stuff.
Not real happy with how the figures turned out, but plan to give it another try.
Also the Westfalia sledge gun is prefect for the game.
I look forward to seeing photos of the game.
What is posted already is outstanding.

A buddy of mine has hosted a similar game at several conventions before - it's a home brew retreat from Moscow style game.  It's interesting because you start with a group of French soldiers in the center of the table.  They must move something like 500 inches to escape.  As you roll the distance, you only move the terrain on the sides of the board.  There is a big pool of event cards.  The army also starts with morale. This morale you can trade or sacrifice to ignore certain cards etc.  It's a tough game but thoroughly unique.  Very cool.

Bloody hell, fella's!
That is one seriously stunning set-up.
 

Looking forward to seeing more pictures of this.
Please!

Hello, Marine0846.

The old Foundry cossacks are always a good choice. I especially loved the priest. So much that I think about bringing him to the game as a special event cards.

@Elbows That is a nice game concept :-) We also do lots of event cards.
The basic game setting is a crossover of table top and roleplaying elements.
There will be two or up to four "companies" of retreating troops. And they get different missions in every game.
These "companies" fight against the game not against each others.

Actually I didnt want to see any winter pictures this year. I had enough from the past 4 years. But you changed my mind Admiral Benbow ! What a lovely work again. I am glad to see this at the Tactica !

Oh....we few, we happy few; we band of brothers

Thank you No special preferences though playing the campaign modus sounds quite fun. I will have to take care of our LAM Tactica stand from time to time but I think this year I should have enough time to participate.
