prepares to do some regimental-level ACW gaming.
When we last looked at my 1:72 scale ACW Union army, I had completed small forces of infantry, cavalry and artillery.
Now the infantry has been doubled, thanks to Fernando Enterprises painting a second box of plastic figures for TMP. I primed the figures, sent them to the painting service, then based the painted figures when they returned.
The figures are shown on a Cigar Box battle map.
The front row are command stands, allowing me to field a dozen separate units. Infantry stands are then added to build the unit.
The big change this time is that I've created some four-figure bases. This will allow fielding some larger Union units.
There are also more three-figure stands now.
As well as more two-figure stands.
That's enough Union for now – it's time to get the Confederates on the battlefield!
