This is the main Allied light cavalry force on the extreme left of the line, British light dragoons and hussars and Kings German Legion light dragoons.
The French infantry have reached the barricade, having taken rifle and roundshot fire on the way in.
Meanwhile more French foot have deployed to the rear of the farm preparatory to an assault. Behind them hussars and dragoons are preparing to charge a squadron of Allied light cavalry. The two objects in the far background are the legs of a curious neighbour who dropped in to see what on earth was happening in his street. He stayed for over an hour, and seems OK!
A weak squadron has moved next to the sandpit hopefully able to catch French infantry in column. In the background the French and Allied cavalry have engaged.
More soon.

The road looks like it's made out of upturned dinner place-mats if I'm not mistaken - blimey, you must have some huge dinner parties! Once again, stunning spectacle to see so many beautifully converted and painted figures being used. I'm looking forward to each post with the same anticipation that I had when watching Dr Who in the 1970s - bring it on!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see you back painting and gaming Eric. All looks rather wonderful. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteBill, You should be a detective, the current Mrs Kemp says I hoard things, this is part of the result. Glad you like the
ReplyDeleteblog.
Marc, Many thanks,
Eric
Might consider that- I fancy a career change! Do they still use those big magnifying glasses - could do with one of those these days to see to paint my figures!
DeleteBig magnifying glass is essential as is the deerstalker and pipe. Careers advice comes free.
