Having re-based the Austrians, and liking the results, it was time to have a go at the Prussians.

I had forgotten how brittle the old Freikorps 15 figures are, so I’m afraid we had a few casualties along the way. I lost a handful of infantry and, for some reason, the Lancers just kept snapping off their bases. The infantry I could spare (loads of singly-based skirmishers to plug the gaps!) but it took me quite a bit of effort to re-build the lost Lancers, and even then I’ve made sure the broken figures are the middle of three.

As per yesterday’s post, these figures haven’t seen the light of day for over twenty years, so it’s really nice to see them schroffed up and ready for action again.

That’s 204 foot, 62 mounted and seven guns/limbers/teams done…and a right pain it is too!
