Well, after Jena/Auerstedt 1806, there really isn't much of a Prussian army until 1813!

Also, the uniform is very different pre and post 1807

That's alright LH, Looks like Walt does figures for both.

Definitely no.

How different? These are 8mm semi flats

QuoteDefinitely no.

Are you a wargamer?

From looking at the Bachuss painting guide, Its different head wear, Coloured chest panels and diffeent coloured Trousers, so quite a bit.

So pick the battle you fancy, and do that army. They will just have to be proxies if you do the battle they are not correct for. Sunjester and I will not point this out when we game with you - promise ( fingers crossed behind back)

Well if I need two different uniforms I just won't bother with either. That's money saved.

I refer my honourable friend to Orcs' earlier question!

You can refer me where you like - I'm not doing two armies.

I am part way through a Jena-Auerstatd list for the Prussians, however.

Early Prussians are ruddy insane - they are really odd in Grande Scale Blucher.

A standard game is 300 points.

Brunswick and Hohenlohe's corps are both over 150 points. Most Blucher corps have 5-8 units in them; with Hohenlohe there are 13! and Brunswick 11. Tempting to make some paper units up, just to see how they play.

Edit
Brunswick - 154 pts
Reserve     -   75
Hohenlohe- 156
Ruchell       -  75
Wurttemb'g- 72

39 bases, but only 6 Cavalry, as most cavalry is in the infantry, using the 'Mixed' rule. Only one dedicated artillery base, as most is attached.

So If its 33 bases of infantry @ 2 strips a base that's 66 strips . So 6 packs
Only 1 pack each of Cavalry and artillery, so 8 packs in all or if its 39 stands plus cavalry its 9 packs or £17.50.

That's less than 3 beers including the postage, seems like a no-brainer.

 

You painting them?

If you need uniform details etc for 1806, let me know

Help, help, I'm being bullied!

All below said in soothing persuasive voice.

Just buy the figures and it will stop.

After all as a wargamer you know you have to have a complete collection, and your collection has a HUGE Napoleonic Prussian army shaped hole.

You will feel better when you have ordered them.
 

BUT IT IS TWO DIFFERENT ARMIES.

They just HAPPEN to have the same name...
