I've a hefty lead mountain to shift to finish this army (are armies ever finished? - we've discussed this before), but obviously they can start to appear in smaller actions before the OOB is complete. The skill, I think, is to do what you have done with the HH's and produce units in such an order that you have some kind of balance as you go along. I'm rather short of that, at the moment - I just have a Grand Plan (aaargh) and there is an extended vague bit between here and there. Now that things are shaping up, I need to organise it properly. The eventual target is some 25 to 30 1809 style battalions, with all the trimmings, but many of my post-1809 chaps will slot in without problems - militia, light troops, the cavalry, the staff, some of the artillery. The aim is an army in 3 divisions, utilising a proportion of the non-line 1812 units.<br /><br />I guess the answer is "later this year"!MSFoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470241067504971068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111053985478999734.post-68774478458022483622014-06-26T20:32:40.802+01:002014-06-26T20:32:40.802+01:00Splendid looking troops - when will we be seeing t...Splendid looking troops - when will we be seeing them in action?Strykerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14258922461691204362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111053985478999734.post-18001959404040694642014-06-26T18:55:41.779+01:002014-06-26T18:55:41.779+01:00Perfectly acceptable to link to your own posting w...Perfectly acceptable to link to your own posting when it answers my question!
