Napoleon at war - figures part 2

Now the time has come to present my main force of french

napoleonics including artillery and cavalry.

It is a nice mix of Esci and Airfix and most of the collection

are still in their boxes.

In the miniature wargame Napoleon at war the figures will be

placed like this on each base:


Infantry:  4 or 2

Cavalry: 3 or 1

Artillery: 4


The nations in the second buy are:

French, British, Scottish, Preussian, Austrian and Russian and

one extra box with Americans (Washingtons army).


The French:

Airfix French grenadiers of the imperial guard Set 01749

Esci French grenadiers of the imperial guard Set 214

Esci French grenadiers of the imperial guard (plastic bag) Set 214

Esci French line infantry (plastic bag) Set 227


Esci French Cuirassiers Set 235

Airfix French Cavalry Set 01736

Esci French cavalry polish lancers Set 218


Esci French Artillery Set 234


Russians

Esci Russian grenadiers Set 236


Esci Russian infantry and artillery (Crimean war) Set 221


The English/Scottish:

Airfix Highland infantry Set 01735


Esci Scots grey - cavalry Set 217

Esci British light dragoons Set 230

Esci Cardigans 11th hussars (Crimean war) Set 220


Esci British artillery Set 233

Esci British and french artillery Set 219

Airfix British artillery Set 01746


Preussians:

Esci Preussian infantry (plastic bag) Set 226


Austrians:

Esci Austrian infantry (plastic bag) Set 226


A big haul indeed but the collection is now almost complete.

To summarize:

The french: 200+100 infantry, 12+11+12 cavalry, 4+2 sets of artillery 

The british 44 infantry, 12+12+12 cavalry, 4+2+2 sets of artillery 


The extras (Crimean war and Washington army) will somehow be

converted to be used together with the main fractions.

To compare Esci British light dragoons Set 230 and

Esci Cardigans 11th hussars (Crimean war) Set 220 their uniforms

and weapons looks almost identical.


A lot to base and paint but also very fun and a treat for the

eye!!!
