I have the first two turns of my French vs. Prussian battle posted on my blog. link The Prussians have repulsed several French attacks thus far… |

Excellent job! I'm just starting out with 15mm Prussia as my 1st foray into painting Napoleonics, though 6mm and 25mm are pulling at me instead. Great inspiration. Your bases look a little large for 15mm. What size are they? I assume your board is 4x8? BTW being an armchair N scale model railroader right now, I also like your model railroad blog. Great city modeling in HO. |

Nice report thank you. What rules are you using? |

From the look of it I think he's using Piquet:Field of Battle… |

Nice! I have been slowly working on my French Naps 20mm for FOB. My son is working on Prussians. Thanks, John |

Nice guess Dave Gamer -- it is indeed Piquet: Field of Battle. When the battle is done, I'll be posting a review of the rules. I've had them for awhile, but this is my first test of Napoleonics with them. Troops are 15mm, almost all Old Glory with a few Battle honors here and there. Base sizes are 1x1.5 inches. Board is 4x8 feet. |

What size are your Cavalry and artillery bases Todd? Thanks, John |
| tshryock | 23 Apr 2009 10:38 a.m. PST |
The cavalry bases are the same as infantry, just turned sideways -- so 1.5"x1", the artillery are 1.5" x 2" (I think, I don't have one in front of me right now). I just went with what looked right to me and didn't worry about anything else. |
