A Small French Force

Having shown the progress of the Pils Holstein forces previously, here are the French forces to date...


Left to Right: Arquebusiers de Grassin; Picardie Regt supported by Diesbach Regt. and flanked by 2 light guns; Edelweiss Hussars supported by a squadron of Nassau Saarbruchen Volunteer Hussars.

Below: French Infantry Brigadier: The Marquis de Genitalia. Converted figure. Painted by Mark Allen.


This weekend saw the first small action, played out between the French force shown and The Pils Holstein contingent depicted a couple of posts ago. A thoroughly enjoyable encounter and a chance to test out rules.
Report, maps and photo dossier being compiled as we speak.
