Almansa 1707 - 2mm French - Courville's Brigade


 After all the Partizan posts recently, I thought I better get back to my Almansa 1707 project


In today's post we have the units in Courville's French Brgade




Courville's fought in the Centre, in the 2nd line under Lt Gen Hessy. Their position can be seen above in blue.


The regiments in the brigade were 1 battalion of Bresse, 1 battalion of the red coated Irish regiment Berwick and 2 battalions of the Maine regiment.

The figures are as per usual are from Irregular Miniatures 2mm range and the flags were either found online or drawn by myself on MSPaint.

  5. For such tiny little people they really make their presence known…
    It should be an impressive game to play.

    All the best. Aly

  6. "Are we there yet?!" Just kidding - another great addition Ray - but seriously, you must be well through the armies by this stage?

    1. Just sit back in the car and shhh! All the figures are actually painted and just gotta get them photographed and up on the blog. I'm working on some terrain at the moment.
