Apparently, the recently promised mini-sets of Napoleonics are being cancelled. I don't have much use for the mini sets, but the cavalry command sets would have been nice. Here's the link:

Haven't the minibox sets of Russian line and French line just been released ? |

Sad news, they have done some wonderful figures. |

That is really bad news, was looking forward to these. I guess they hadn't got beyond the theoretical stage then… |

I also thought the infanrty had been released – scans definitely seen over at Bennos |

with all these sets being delayed or cancelled i guess there isn't much hope of their Napoleon in Russia game ever making it to production . |

I've also heard that the French Voltigeurs set is now oop.
Anyone know where to find these besides ebay? |

Hope you are wrong about the Voltigeurs. napthyme – do you have a source on the death of the owner? That could be far reaching. As for the apparent contradiction re infantry sets, some of the sets listed as "cancelled" are based on existing full sets, not just infantry but artillery, too. The real disappointment is the cavalry sets – French and Russian Dragoons. These were never released as full sets. It's all a damn shame. Nobody did it like Zvezda. |

They are next to impossible to find right now – I've checked with all the companies that carried them to no avail. There's a set for sale on Ebay for something like 34 GBP – ridiculous! |
