A Foray into Napoleonic Wargaming
Artillerie à Pied
Added some support for the French infantry with a batter of foot artillery.
The French artillery was quite formidable, often used very aggressively and offensively compared to the more defensive deployment of allied guns.
The foot artillery probably has the simplest uniform to paint. It’s pretty much all dark blue, bar the red cuffs, shoulder straps, collar edging and turnbacks, and black gaiters. Gun carriages are a olive green. Possibly a nice place to start if you are new to Napoleonics to ease you in a bit.
These models are all from Campaign Game Miniatures.
The Foot artillery are very well done for this scale. Campaign Game Miniatures have some excellent pieces.
Thank you. Campaign Game Miniatures have a very comprehensive range of Napoleonics, quite detailed, a nice level of variations in poses. They have a bit of a chunkier proportion compared to the Xan models that make up most of my collection. Well worth checking out.
