Retreat from Moscow - French 129th Line

These poor frozen fellows were among the first figures I bought for my and Lee's Retreat from Moscow project, they're from North Stars, Muskets & Tomahawks army deal, but for some reason (normally "Oooo shiny") they've been pushed to the back of the pile!

 

They are painted up to represent the 129th line regt, who's 2 battalions were in Brigadier Bruny's brigade, which in turn was in Ledru's 10th Division, of Ney's Third Army.

My plan was to paint up units for the 10th Division, but its not falling into place just yet., I still need to paint up the 46th line and the 72nd line, but only one battalion of each though.

10th Div (Ledru)

Brig Gengoult: 24th Light Inf 4 batts, 1st Portuguese regt 2 batts

Brig Marion: 46th Line 4 batts

Brig Bruny: 72nd Line 4 Batts, 129th Line 2 Batts

An interesting snippet of info about the 129th, the were only formed in 1811 from mainly the Regiment d'Oldenbourg and a detachment of the Garde de Westphalians and various other French troops and there was me thinking I really need to paint up a French unit.........

To make them look a little different I painted the hat pom poms up in the 4th company colour of purple. And now looking at the photo as I'm typing, I can see I missed the red trim on the chap back row far rights fatigue cap.....sigh!!!

The Rejects on Tour- Broadside 2025 - The Battle of Rivoli 1797

On Saturday 14th June as the poster says above, Posties Rejects we be at the Broadside Games Show, in Gillingham putting on a demo game once again. This is usually the only show we put on a demo game at throughout the year, so come and say hi!

Some of the Rejects meet up over the weekend to play test Richard's game that he's hosting. Richard has painted up the armies and made all the terrain to refight the Battle of Rivoli in 1797, during the French Revolutionary Wars.

Here are a few shots of the figures and terrain to wet your appetite

All the figures are from the great range of 6mm MDF figures made by Commission Figurines, there website is down at the moment? But you can contact them on the Facebook site. here.

In the practice game the Austrians were smashed by some fantastic die rolls from Chris, he's never usually this lucky.

Hopefully we'll see you there!
