As the year end approaches, I thought I put up my wish list for the Naps range extension for 2013:

French individual figures

One (or two) loading figures (one biting of a powder charge would be extra cool)

Light and Voltigeurs skirmishing

Sappers

Causalities

French Units

Some of units from the original list (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,4400.0.html) remain outstanding. The most pressing are:

Generals Marshals, and ADCs

Guard cavalry (Polish lancers, Guard Chasseurs, Grenadiers a Cheval, Empress Dragoons)

Middle and Young Guard


Peninsular English

Now that Albion Triumphant is out, having a revamped English Peninsular line would be great. Together with Spanish regulars and guerrillas if at all possible.

Merry Christmas,

Thomas

In 30 months it will be the Bi-Centenary of Waterloo.
Please bear in mind that we have to paint these figures. However I need to know the size of the figures to work out figure/men ratio,base size and ground scale.
at this rate I'll be using card markers with stick it notes with coming soon on them.

water proofed helmetrs and shako's
Brit. Fusiliers with wings not just flank companies but the whole battalion includung the command.
Hussars and light dragoons with carbines and an officer with telescope and no guidon bearers.

Allied infantry and light infantry that look the part and not just brits painted as ...... fillin the dots.

more peaple will go for 10mm. because of cost or bigger stands.

I dont want 6 figure battalions, but I will be restricted as to how fast I can Paint. I'll be 70 by 2015 and I want the chance to play with my toys before I go where the tempature is too high for lead figures.

Its an opportunity too good to miss for British Infantry. There was 1 10mm. British army in the BHGS competition in Manchester this year, and an 800 point army is quite big.
They were using Field of Glory- Napoleonic. In the North thats the only one I've seen in Competition recently, although Ive seen several played using Age of Eagles,same base sizes, but the games were Austerlitz and Borodino. thats a lot of heavy stuff on one table.

So come on guys, get some Brits for sale.

Sorry, I forgot, Didnt the Prussians Show up at Ligny and before that they got the whole thing going at Charleroi?

Thats 100,000 Prussians, on a 40mm. wide by 25mm. deep base thats 720 men or 10 to 12 figures in 2 ranks for Age of Eagles half that per base for cavalry.

Have a heart just look what I've got to paint.

I've made a note of all these and we'll be working through the Nap extension as quickly as possible.

We want to, but also we need to make sure that we complete more of the French and Austrians first, and the designer's time will also be split between Naps and the WW1 extension.  We'll plod on though!
