Hello all. Well after several years away from Napoleonic gaming I have decided to jump back into the fray. This is largely due to the new Republic to Empire rules. Having sold all my Napoleonic's years ago, it is time to start building again. I have attached some picture's of my first completed unit. (At least I think I have as computers are not my strong point.) Will add more picture's as units are finished. Some of you may have already seen these picture's on the Steve Dean forum and if so I apologise for not having something new to offer at the moment. Joe

Hi Joe,
Fantastic work and very R2E looking! Best of luck collecting your new Napoleonic forces. If they turn out as nice as this it will be a great collection!

Nice work, Joe, and a great solution to model the battery park!

Joe,
Your idea for the battery park is too good to be left alone and I'll be joining the many who will steal it!

It is indeed an excellent idea, combining frugality with aesthetics!

Yes Joe, I echo all comments so far. I have never pretended to have exclusivitiy on originality and I think this piece is both original and attractive.

Thanks everyone for your compliment's. Churchill, the artillerists and guns are Perry's. As are the dismounted officer and casualties. The cassion set is Essex. Thanks again. Joe
