The French March to War under the Perry Miniatures Banner
July 4, 2012 by brennon
With a look at some British soldiers from the Victorian Age, and a crew of American freedom fighters let's head over to France for our next foray into the world of Historical Wargaming. Perry Miniatures have a set of French Imperial Guard ready for the battlefield...
First up is the Command for these soldiers. I love the guy in command waving his tricorn hat forwards as they march to victory. A good characterful command set.
Here are the marching infantry themselves. While they are looking like well sculpted models I can't wait to see what the action pose soldiers look like too. I may have to seriously think about getting into all this Napoleonic style wargaming...
I wonder folks, is there a skirmish level game out there where you could play within the Napoleonic theatre of war with a troupe of soldiers a bit like Sharpe?
Will you be marching under their colours?

Awesome. Will have to look at this in more detail and see how it plays.

The Two Fat Lardies do a skirmish level game called Sharpsd Practice play it a lot down are club.
Perry stuff is alway top notch and affordable. Their ACW and War of the Roses figs are first class as well. I have purchased their plastic boxed ACW infantry and cavalry, and will be buying more to flesh out my armies.
Peter Cushing would have loved these 😉
