Chaps

thought i would let you know part of the release for
Salute 12.4.2014 on the Napoelonic front from www.gringo40s.com
these will be the French Guard Engineers in combat role for 1815!
doing what enginners do and did at the Bridge ar Charleoi in Belgium 1815...there will be figures for a marching battalion and a group in
action clearing a barricade ,and bringing up ammo..removing barrels etc
Obviously as there were only 125 men present the idea is they can be
used when they went to battalion strength prioer to the Cent Jours
campaign.these should fill a gap in the market.. and a favourite unit of mine.. regards Ged www,gringo40s.com

Nice figures, but the first thing that came to mind with the photo was:

"Don't cry, Jean, I can whittle a couple of new drumsticks from this twig"

I'll get my coat.....
