Hartleys Additional Regiment




I took the uniform details from Mollo's Uniforms of the American Revolution. If they're wrong, blame him! Figures are a mix of Foundry and Eureka.




British Generals




These are Old Glory figures. They're supposed to by Cornwallis and Howe. I'll just use them as generic Brigadiers

British Grenadiers AWI




Figures are by Front Rank. Flag courtesy of my friend Bill Nevins. Yes, I know that British Grenadiers did not carry flags, but I have the standard bearers and needed a figure to fill out this small unit of 12. So please forgive the historical inaccuracy!

AWI Game

Alex and I played a small game today to try out (or re try) the Patriots and Loyalists rules by Scott Holder, with some modifications created by Alex. They're an interesting set of rules and certainly can give a fast game. I'm not completely sold on them though as they have some unusual features too. Here are some photos from the game.

Continental Command




Continental command. Front Rank figures. They are "generic" (i.e. not for any particular regiment). I assume that if any of the Continentals were well-uniformed it would have been the officers. So this unit has command in regimental uniforms while most of the rank and file have only hunting shirts. The flag is courtesy of Warflag. www.warflag.com

17th Regt. of Foot (WIP)





Perry Miniatures British Infantry in cut down coat and slouch hat. Appropriate campaign dress for 1777. This is part of the 17th Regt. of Foot. They've got white facings with yellow lace, so it's a bit hard to see. I really like Perry's figures, but these haven't turned out quite as nice as I had hoped. I'm starting to think that I enjoy painting Front Rank most. But they don't do British in campaign dress, so...... More to come.
