Hi everybody, I have had something of a break from figure painting in the last few years, but the appearance of all these lovely 28mm plastic Napoleonics has tempted me back.

Amongst a variety of Victrix and Perry boxes, I have bought the Victrix British Artillery set. My research leads me to believe there should be an insert with a breakdown of which arms are intended for use with which torsos to make assembling the crews easier, but there is nothing in my box. I asked the retailer, but all the boxes he had were the same and an email to Victrix has not even been acknowledged.

I was wondering if somewhere out in the wide world someone has a copy they could scan and email to me? I would be very grateful.

My understanding with plastics is they are designed so you can mix and match as you see fit.

Well of course you can, but they are generally sculpted in a particular pose using specific parts. That is certainly the case with their infantry and they provide a set of instructions to show how they go together, so when you are building a battalion's worth you can do it quicker than trial fitting all the different arms to see what works. Seeing as it's listed as being in the box too I thought it might be useful to have.

Hi Chris,
email me at DillonJN@hotmail.com I have several copies as I bought four sets. I can send you a copy or a scan of one.

Cheers!
