Hi, Just finished posting to my blog the first part of this Seven Years War battle, pitting the French vs. Allies (Hanover and Hesse-Kassel). link We used Piquet's Cartouche 2 and 15mm Old Glory figures. Eric |

Very purrty, Eric I think I'm going to have to get started on some Hanoverian troops |

Fantastic as always. I must say the winter terrain looks splendid. A great account of the action as well with plenty of stunning photographs. |

Thanks Bryan and Robert! More action to come! The first night was mainly maneuver and sizing up the enemy. |

I found it very difficult to get any good pictures without a flash. I normally don't need a flash, but the snow causes the camera to not adjust the light like it normally would. Next, I need to figure out how to get good depth on the photos. |

I thought the photographs were excellent. |

Great work, Eric. Love the winter scenario even if I hate winter in real life. Now let's see if the French can actually win one!!! |

Mike, the French are really going to have to shore things up to get back the initiative. The Allies have made the French constantly react to the moves on the battlefield. I, of course, will take lots of photos and post an update this weekend. |
