Presented is First Battalions of the 2nd Brigade's two Hungarian Regiments in Lindenau's Division.
-Still trying to figure this out! I apologize for the wash-out of the lighting. The grass field is actually a very nice dark olive green to put into prospective. -
I am also still experimenting on the mounting scheme for the 1:20 tactical play.
Presented here is the ~1807 Austrians regulations with the 3rd rank already formed in two rank. Ideally these would be behind each 4 front rank stand in 2s but, decided against that due to fiddly and logistics. These 3rd rankers can be brought to front as skirmish line as needed. This also presents a retention of the battalion's frontage, as it should be. With this scheme the French and French allies, in the traditional 3 rank, are mounted on 18mm depth stands with 4 in front and two in the rear. This matched up nicely to the cavalry mounted on 26mm frontage stand in twos or 3s on 44mm frontage.
I have the 2nd and 3rd battalion's command stands ready, that will be added to make these into 1:60 full 3 battalion regiments for my grand-tactical play that will be at Historicon2017.

Hope you enjoy and thanks for your reviewing..

M Greg out!

needs Facebook account

NUTs!
Is there a way to present PICs w/o a blog or flicker account?

I'm not a Facebook user but surely there is a way to make your Facebook pictures publicly viewable.

Uuuugggghhhh…..

What a shame. I immediately went to this as I am interested in any ideas for basing……

Many of us are non Facebook generation…indeed avoid it like the plague

Greg, IDK if it would work, but could you put the pix
in the photo section of our group's (TSS) mail list
and if that works, provide a link to them there ?

I would like to see them as well. I will look for them at historicon too.

"ED the result is the same as the facebook!"

Which is why I said I didn't know if it would work.

Just tried to think of a way the non-FB users (like me)
could admire your work…

Has to be a better way to post photos than having a FB, Flickr or Photo-bucket account.
