Peninsular Napoleonics Not-Kickstarter!

[parkerm17]

I had been waiting for this range to come along for years and it comes just after I had made the mistake of putting in an order for Indian Mutiny figures (bit of desperation and I cannot fond any remotely suitable rules).   Is it possible to transfer the money I sent for the Indian Mutiny figures (which have yet to arrive) as a down payment for Peninsula War figures (I will then make a substantial addition to the order).

I hope you can assist me

Just codes marked with a quantity thanks

Am doing the Salamanca OOB in 1812, question for the experts, did the British Light Dragoons have the new uniform by then, or were they still in (worn out) Tarletons?

Hi Leon,

Can I just pledge how much I will contribute just now and have a look later on this week to confirm exactly what?

Basically I'm going to want most stuff, esp the Spanish and Portuguese....except of course I'll need Brit Cav in Bicornes and Lt dragoons too ....yes, I'll probably need most things.

Say £300 (£150 now, £150 later)  I reckon as I will want all for 24 size cav units and 32 to 48 size inf btns, roughly 12 Btns Spanish, Port, guns etc so that sounds like a start. Actually edited to say that the Spanish range...oh my please!

That being said, if for some reason the pledges fell short of the target....I'd maybe squeeze some more in.

Really hope this gets going as I love the sculpts as easy to paint, robust for picking up and look good which is a tough combo.

cheers

I'm far from any expert but it appears those who are say they did. So get a pledge down, the helmets look better than the Shako on British Lights. Plus.....Hussars!

Welcome Derek

An impressive new range Pendraken

Our group already has substantial Napoleonic forces in 20mm & 6mm (we've refought Borodino) but nothing for the Peninsular

Welcome Derek to the forum

[Orcs]

This looks  a very impressive range,looks like the not Kickstarter has got off to an excellent start. Fortunately for my bank balance its not my period.  Had it been biblicals then that would have been another story.

Not wanting to spoil matters but have you tried Sepoy: Wargames Rules for the Indian Mutiny?

(I am not now, nor have I ever been, a player of Napoleonics. - I suppose that makes me an ideal candidate to start a new period in a new scale!)
