Hi all, We are going to start, in the not too distant future, a campaign covering the 1st two months of the Franco-Prussian War. As part of preparing for this mammoth undertaking I wrote up an AAR for a battle we had fought a bit ago. Please take a look and any constructive criticism would be appreciated! carnivalempire.wordpress.com |

Nice pics. Nicer maps. Even nicer figures and terrain!
Keep it up. |

Great looking game!! What scale are your figures and how many bases did you use to make up your battalions-Divisions and so on? What size are your bases? |

Thank you for your kind comments.
The figures are Old Glory 15's. The base size is 1.0"x0.75". There are 3 figures / base for line infantry and 4 figures per base for chasseurs or jaegers.
Each stand is a battalion. There are 3 stands per regiment, and 2 regiments, so 6 stands, per brigade. Two brigades make a division. For the French, there is a chasseur stand per division, for the Prussians it's a jaeger per corps. A Prussian/Bavarian corps is 2 divisions, a French is 3 or 4. |

I really liked this blog and the battle described. It is a great inspiration. I shall certainly add the link to my favourites and follow the course of your campaign. Regards |
