What was the differences, if any, between the regular British line and the KGL line Infantry ?
@JP-ml4zhКүн бұрын
Hi, I’m guessing your asking about uniforms, I’m afraid I don’t have my books to hand but from memory when I was painting them I basically painted the line infantry identically, all have blue facings and a specific set of KGL flags, but otherwise no difference, when I did the KGL lights they are basically in the standard British riles uniform but with some differences in detail, I think Perry do different metal figures with the correct uniform, again apologies it’s details like the piping on the facings that are different, I used the Perrys own web sight to help ick up the differences and the Knottel plates that are available on the web. Have fun if your having a go producing them. Cheers JP

Thanks for your clear explanations! I'm amazed you're going through this game. What are your thoughts on it? Is it enjoyable, or a stubborn labour of love?
@JP-ml4zh13 күн бұрын
Defn a stubborn labour of love, the logistics are intense, fun to see them play out and interacting with the formations, planning the convoys and the interceptions….the air combat at individual aircraft level is bonkers……this scenario seems just about playable because it has so few units, and a bit more playable than the Italian scenario as a result….. we’ll see how long I can keep it going….but the large basement meaning I can leave it out here in the US means I might manage a few more turns this time.

Those Austrians are really useful. I just finished a unit converted to the French intervention force in the failed Irish rebellion of 1798. They're also a good base figure for the French in Egypt so my conversions can work there too. Instead of roasting, starving and losing in the miserable desert, they could have been lounging around friendly peat fires, seducing willing redheads with ivory skin and bayoneting the old enemy in Ireland. But oh no, Bonaparte had a dream.

Hi JP..being Waterloo day on Tuesday I watched your videos from our game at Chris Greggs again.Marvelous stuff! Your Wurttembergers are looking good and should be a useful addition to your collection. I'm currently churning out Prussian Landwehr but intend stopping at 15 battalions as I've run out of figures.
@JP-ml4zh22 күн бұрын
That was a fun game and where for once a plan worked. 👍😉👍 15 battalions of Landwehr ….wow……impressed, do you have a force, game your building them for? I’m toying with some 1813 games where the Wurtembergers could see an outing. Gradually building my Prussians up, three “brigades” / divisions now and roughly a division of Russians…..too much for any tables I have back in the UK. Out here massive empty basement but no figures! Cheers JP

One day….we’ll see how far I get, I’m taking a bit of a shortcut with things like airfield supply and just deducting from the main supply dumps, rather than running the dozens of tiny convoys necessary to each depot. The fuel and stores consumption of the main divisions is so significant I feel all the tiny fiddly bits ( I’m still doing evaporation and Italian pasta…..bonkers I know) fade into insignificance. But supply really dominates everything. The Rommel scenario for the moment has so few units it feels manageable…..15th Panzer is just starting to arrive….cheers JP

Does your opponent sees your positions and moves?
@JP-ml4zh22 күн бұрын
They do but your combat potential is massively variable a division can vary from full strength to a shell with possibly a hundred or so values in between and morale disruption and ammo supply also have a huge bearing….so it is pretty easy to mislead your opponent…..you can do recon etc to understand what’s in a stack……

@@JP-ml4zh Many thanks for your feedback, I appreciate. BTW Conrad von Hotzendorf, Chief of the GS of Austria-Hungary in WW1 would lead the war like that: on his map a division token meant a full division, but in reality that could have been a beat-up group of soldiers

Interesting, I already have the parts to do one regiment. I bet you enjoyed tinkering with 28’s again :-) I have been reading that Army Painter have just brought out a new paint range call ‘Fanatic’ or something like that and the demo shows a highly pigmented approach that allows yellows and reds to go down in a single coat!

Been nice to get back to 28mm, need a bit more work on these, just about to start on the next batch, and not quite sure on the flesh tones and highlighting the faces with the set of paints I’ve assembled out here ….. Two years and back to 28mm proper 😀, just need to decide what games I’m adding units for….jumping around with random plastics basically…..cheers JP
