link I hosted a Franco-Prussian War game for my club. Follow the link to my Flickr page for photos and a battle report. Please click where it says, faintly "show more" There will find more information about the game. If you view each photo individually you will see commentary below most of the photos. link

Nice open fields of fire for those Chassepots and Krupp guns! Thanks for sharing.

They tended to fight where there were open fields of fire.

Very nice, I do like the FPW.. I always wonder how to handle skirmishers in the FPW.

Holy sheet, that looks frickin' awesome. How long did it take you to finish all those figures?

A long time. I have been building the collection since the late 90s. I'm not doing anymore. Some are painted by me and some are painted by others. I don't have any French Republican troops. If someone in my group wants to do the Republican Army then I have the Germans to fight them.
