So I have still 6 figures to paint.<br /><br />@Karcuss: don't understand your question about the Nassau Waterloo thing??? And no I don't have them Matt sealed. I had some bad experience with that in the past.<br /><br />@Mekelnborg: thanks for the historical information.<br /><br />Greetings<br />Peter<br />http://peterscave.blogspot.com/peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09450643635236807442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185812465832623871.post-26038555201519997262011-09-21T17:54:25.016-07:002011-09-21T17:54:25.016-07:00Really good painting; I really can't even see ...Really good painting; I really can't even see all that on the life-size figure, with the magnifying glass. In real life these are one inch tall, not as big as the pictures.<br /><br />For Brummie, the Nassau troops add up to 7637 officers and men, so if the whole army at Waterloo was 74,326 as Bowden figures then these Nassau troops are over ten percent of the whole army, and not just 10 percent of the infantry as Adkins says.<br /><br />There are 8 large battalions and a Freiwilliger Jaeger company. three above 950, five above 850, one at 22 plus 666, and the FWJ Co at 5 plus 172. With the NRC staff, it is 7637 officers and men.<br /><br />Of these the Grenadiers as shown are in 1 company of 150-odd per battalion.<br /><br />There are at least one thousand different sets of rules for how to translate the facts into your units, it all depends on the rules and scales. Some people do not put them in units, but in displays.mekelnborghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269195057608159822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185812465832623871.post-83156610638553017482011-09-20T01:56:27.139-07:002011-09-20T01:56:27.139-07:00Wonderful work, Peter!
