Cheers, enjoyed that, thanks! Nice to see some beautiful figures in action.

The Charge of the Light Brigade is obviously what the battle of Balaclava is most remembered for, but there was a lot more to it, of course. For my own take on it, I drew the frame wider and included eg British 1st and 4th divisions and some French as well. Easier to do in my favoured 6mm scale than with 28s! But if you're interested in seeing a different scenario approach, here's an AAR:

And here's a link to the folder with the scenario in it:

Hope this is of interest and maybe gives you another way to use your nice troops.
