Napoleon in Egypt - Expédition Baïonnette en Argent
French Unit Ready for Action
The Silver Bayonet: Egypt book arrived this week, along with a few of the new monsters from Northstar.
Whilst the beasties are joining my painting queue, I thought I’d put together a French unit from the models I have painted in this project.
As arranged from left to right in the image above –
- There is a Grenadier from the 88eme demi brigade;
- A Doctor from the recently established Egyptian Institute of Arts and Sciences;
- Another Grenadier, this time from the 85eme demi brigade
- A Supernatural Natural Investigator, also from the Institute, but shunned for his less reputable academic studies;
- The Officer, hailing from the 15eme dragoons;
- A Sailor, left ashore after the Battle of the Nile wrecked the French navy;
- A dragoon trooper from the 15eme, following his officer;
- Finally, a mounted/dismounted trooper from the Dromedary Corps.
The dragoon trooper will represent a Soldier, whilst the dromedary trooper will be a Light Cavalryman.
Really happy at the colourful attire sported by this lot.
