New unit - Regiment Auvergne

Just a quick post as I've finished basing the latest French infantry battalion - Auvergne - who are now marching to take up their post ready for the attack on Dottingheim.



Figures painted by James Brewerton, flags by Mark Allen.
A number of people have been in touch to ask, and I thought I should clarify: The figures are my own range, and not for sale. I decided, when embarking on the project that I wanted something unique to my collection, and so elected to have the figures specially commissioned.

Whilst I'm answering queries: someone (Austin) asked in the comments o the previous blog post whether I would be doing a full report on the Dottingheim game here. The answer is... no, not really. I will do the unfolding updates on the AMG forum. However, a short report and a few pictures may appear here, after the event.
Hope that clarifies.

    Regt. d'auvergne is beautiful, Phil and your castings are marvellous. I like the terrain on display in the previous article (the town of Dottingheim). Did you make a new terrain cloth?

    Phil,

    Another very attractive French Regiment.

    Pleased to see the collection growing with speed and to an exquisite standard.

    I will definitely be glued to AMG that day to see how the game plays out.

    Regards
    John

    Thanks for clarifying about the game. Looks like I will have to join AMG... Sounds like it's all happening over there!

    Thanks for your kind comments.
    Jiminho: the terrain in the Dottingheim pictures is a simple Terrain Mat.
    Austin: you should definitely get John's book (if you haven't already purchased it), and join the AMG forum. It's a place where you get to rub shoulders (virtually) with many 18century aficionados, rules-writers, authors, historians, artists, and figure designers, sculpters, and so on. You'll recognise many of the names,I'm sure, and the atmosphere is very chatty and very friendly because it's a small group. See you over there...
    Phil
