A small update from the painting desk today. Begun under the shadow of the four-game series refighting Montebello, two Austrian cavalry batteries muster out from the painting desk. Too late to participate at Montebello, these artillerymen will be ready for service when they are next called into action. Still pondering bringing Marengo to the table but other games are in the queue before returning to the FRW.
I may have been thumped in this one but I look forward to giving the French a better outing next time.
Nice new artillery units Jon and the story of St Privat will make for interesting reading.....the Prussian guards took a real pounding thanks to the chasse pot, according to my memory of the BBC "Soldiers" TV series!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Keith! The Guard took no such pounding in this fight!
DeleteBTW...this post isn't actually showing up on your own blogs following section yet....when did you post it?
ReplyDeleteNope. Not on my blogroll yet but I only posted it ten minutes ago.
DeleteHow did you find it?
DeleteI just clicked on your name in a comment on my post...as I think I have mentioned, I use your blog as an "index" so I visit often to see who has posted recently...a side benefit at the moment is, I then also see if you have posted something new!
ReplyDeleteHappy to be a hub for your blog-reading enjoyment, Keith! Post latency is really a pain. This latency added to AI scrubbing IP and repackaging have me considering going private.
DeleteNice looking Austrian guns Jonathan. By coincidence I have just finished some Austrian artillery myself. Also by coincidence we have a FPW game coming up on Sunday. My latest post is also not showing on other blog rolls yet.
ReplyDeleteWe have much in common, Mark!
