I'm not sure why they're not on the website but we've got a couple of French codes:

French

CF1        Foot coat, shako          £3.00
CF2        Chausseurs, shako        £3.00

Agree with this - The French army was as big as the British in the Crimea, What about those Chassuers d Afrique (SIC) who charged at Balaclava??8)

Do you have a club or store near to you Nicofig? I've sold quite a few of the books in France so maybe try to get interest in getting together here and through Legacy's site; lots of members now just waiting for chat I guess.

> CF1 / Foot coat, shako  & CF2 / Chausseurs, shako

Are these the new style like the FPW range or the old style like the 19th Century Italians?

I am in need of some French infantry in shako for my 1859 French Imperial Guard Voltigeurs and ..er.. Chausseurs

They're not new sculpts, so they'd be more like the Italians.

The Crimean range is probably one that we'll look at next year sometime.

Excellent news old boy.

The only thing stopping me doing Crimea is a lack fo a comprehensive range of figs...
