DBN Germany 1813 Figures(3)

 Obsessed! That's what I've become, I knew it, these bloody Napoleonic's.  Trawling through Ospreys, scouring the internet, all to get the right flag, uniform, whatever!  Ahhh, such fun, HOWEVER I'm not young any more & painting these 6mm things is horrendous.

Anyway I've been concentrating on the French Allies, particularly those at the Battle of Gross Breeren. (guess which battle is next...).  A big thank you to Spanish Wargamer Rafael Pardo's Website, bags of info on the units & battles in question - well done! http://www.rafaelpardoalmudi.com/

I've also been climbing through the attic, (Yes, not a pretty sight being 266 lbs of Man Flesh, through years of lifting weights, the hands & knees can't take the strain though....) looking for my Anschluss 1813 Books, they are Out of Print now.  I've found ALL the books on the 1813 Battles, including some 1809 Austrian Campaign, BUT I can't find the 'Ebb & Flow of Battle ' 1813 Module 2 Rules/ Army Lists.  Obviously being Leipzig, they are BIG lists.  Gutted, I've now scoured EBAY, Amazon, but no luck.  I guess I'm going to have to get along to some game shows... If anyone has a copy & you want to sell them, then please leave your email address.

Well here's the latest efforts.  Some re-paints, some new paint jobs, some new flags.  Of course courtesy of the Splendid WarFlag!   http://www.warflag.com/napflags/index.htm

Fine looking troops, Mr F & Amy. I hope that you get to do Mockern soon, so that we can see these great troops in action, plus their 'friends'!
