Revisiting an old period, though I do like Black Powder I do think that Fire and Furia Francese capturesw the 'feel' of the period just that little bit better. What do you guys think?

Wonderfully painted figures! I agree with you, using a variant of Fire and Fury I think is the "easiest" way to go. Fire and Fury are great rules, easy to learn, easy to teach in convention settings.

What figures are you using? I don't see that mentioned on the blog post. Looks like your friend Scotty is using Outpost. Are you as well?

Keep us updated on this project!

I've played FP w/ BlackPowder and quite enjoyed it.

I was using a FnF variant that I created for the FPW back when they were first released. I really like what the guys have done with creating all the later 19th Century variants and scenarios for them.

Lately I have been using my 1/72 stuff and using my time tested favorite Field of Battle. Exceptional set of rules!

Thanks,

John

Cheer guys,
yes Darryl the figures are Outpost (though the ones in the picture above happen to be some old Mini Figs I had lying around). There are better sculpted figures out there but they are fine when painted up and best of all they cover the whole range, and I mean everything both Imperial and Republican. I'll add this info to the blog.
All the best for Xmas lads,
Dave
