Sales: 28mm Prussian Army

Nothing to see here folks! 

These are just some pics of my 28mm Prussian Napoleonic Army to assist with selling it off, and, subsequently, for nostalgia purposes! (Reluctantly having to down size! - you can't do it all, right?). 

Calpe metals and Perry plastic and metals:

  4. Very nice indeed Sparker. While I hope they find a good home, there is a part of me that also hopes you change your mind.

  5. Arrggghhhh! The wailings, the gnashings of teeth and the lamentations. And that's just from me!! 8O)

    All the best with the re-positioning of the Prussians.

    Do I sniff an influx of AB Figures in your future.

    1. LOL! Thanks your vonship. Yes I consider AB figures to be the 15/18mm equivalent in quality to the wonderful Calpe figures. Just without the same hefty table presence. Oh well!

    1. Hi Peter, Yes guilty as charged with grevious offences against the God of 28mm gaming! However, in mitigation, yes I am still faithful to Black Powder as my go-to set of rules, and yes, at this stage I hope to retain my Anglo-Portuguese, French, Russian and Austrian armies. They can all be played in linear fashion against the French so on a narrower table. Late War Prussians, unfortunately, require much more space so they will have to go before we move to our final resting place in a few years!
