I've just posted 15 pictures from our monster Franco-Prussian game on Labor Day. We had over 3400 figures on two large and one smaller battlefields controlled by 10 players.

This was a play test for a game at the Colonial Barracks convention in early November.

Additional pictures will be posted as they are received and edited.

We played with every thing--Corvus,Battle Honors,Falcon,Askari,Helion,Scruby one inch,Frontier,Old Glory,Foundry,Minifigs,Hinchciffe--some of every FP figure ever made. The Krupp batteries dominated both tables. One table was the cavalry table and Prussian cold steel won there as well.We used Bring Up the Guns and were able to fight to a conclusion in 5 hours.

Well, not everything. One French division didn't make it on at all. But it probably would have if we had more time.

Looks great! So much effort seems to have paid off.
