A Foray into Napoleonic Wargaming
3rd Battalion, 39eme Regiment de Ligne
Finished up another batch of French line infantry, representing the 3rd battalion of the 39eme regiment. Not much to add that hasn’t been written previously under the entry on the 1st & 2nd battalions of the same regiment.
These models are however from a different range, being some of Fizzer Johnson’s Men of Metal. These are all in campaign dress, with extra details like worn and patched clothes, and various extra blankets and items on backpacks etc. They match very well alongside the Xan models, and I quite like them as an alternative that adds a bit more variation. The flag comes from GMB Designs as per usual.
Plans for this project in 2023 is to add a couple of French light cavalry regiments and some officers, with the possibility of battle reports trying out Soldiers of Napoleon.
I love the little details. Great work as always.
Thanks NR. The details are a bit more time consuming to paint, so I’ll likely stick with other ranges to form the bulk of my infantry, but a very nice range to add to the mix.
