I always watch to include 1 standard bearer (with escort if he is an eagle-bearer), 1 drummer, 1 NCO and 1 or 2 officers distributed among those 6 bases (not packed together).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376865897214436290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4448216463886608168.post-54119789139142861682014-05-20T12:42:19.423+02:002014-05-20T12:42:19.423+02:00I´m still struggling to learn how to put the prope...I´m still struggling to learn how to put the proper functionalities at the blog. I see the "subscribe through e-mail" gadget, but I´m not sure about the difference between "g+ followers" gadget and the "subscription to the site" gadget...<br /><br />Units seem quite large, as they are basically regiments, not batalions. I have used the Age of Eagles scale as a basis (360 men per base of inf). As you can see my prussians, they are about 2 or 3 bases per batalion (6-7 bases per 3 batalion regiment). I am using them now to play FOGN smoothly: 4-6 bases per regiment is all you need: I dispense with the second line of bases that ruleset recomends, as I find its look unlinear/unatractive, and this allows me to play with a scale of 1 figure=100 men but with plenty of tactical detail and good looks. <br /><br />That basing system also allows me to form batalions for other rule sets if needed. When I paint small historical batalions such as the Milan Guard (1 batalion), I change the scale (to 1:60 or even 1:40) and paint a 3rd base (or even a 4th) for aesthetic reasons, and to keep the window open for use in those other scales. After so many years, I find flexibility and looks are paramount.<br /><br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376865897214436290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4448216463886608168.post-8617309014690877082014-05-20T03:44:25.305+02:002014-05-20T03:44:25.305+02:00Beatiful troops!

After all, the hobby is mostly painting and collecting, so mostly I want minis that look good (I love the uniforms!).<br />At first I thought to play with Age of Eagles, but later I decided I needed a little more tactical detail, so I have just finihed a battle at home using FOG(N), a ruleset I like for the most part. But I am looking for other alternatives as well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376865897214436290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4448216463886608168.post-17431884423091042952014-05-19T17:19:35.326+02:002014-05-19T17:19:35.326+02:00They look good, but can they fight? :=) Look forwa...They look good, but can they fight? :=) Look forward to seeing a battle report to see if the Prussians can route the French or be routed in turn.Vive l'Empereurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00785173543457314763noreply@blogger.com
