Yet more odds and sods for the British Canadian army 1812

With the following completed there are now only 5 units and the generals to go for this army before i actually do something of mine to paint.

So here goes.

First of we have another two gun battery of artillery, these figures are from Warrior Miniatures and represent a 6pdr battery.

so for the points 2 x guns (4pts each) and 6 x 15mm figures ( 2pts each) gives a total of 20pts

Next up are two combined flank Battalions.  In the rules we use in the club infantry bases are all the same size with the number of figures depicting the type of unit.

In mainland Europe we usually have 6 figures per base to represent the massed ranks typical in the armies.  For skirmishing companies it is 2 figures per base.  For this army as it fought mainly in line i decided to go for 5 figures per base.  OK so the real reasons were pack size the figures came in and i did not want to chop the bases of the figures to make them fit. But for the these flank battalions i went for 4 figures, reason being i had enough spare figures for two battalions at 4 figures a base.

First Battalion from left to right each base represents Light and grenadier companies from the following regiments 64th Stafford shire, 70th Glasgow Lowland, 13th Somerset and a mixture of Canadian Militia figures are all Lancashire games except for the second base in blue trousers which a Warrior miniatures.

Second Battalion consists of Dundas and Stormont Militia, bonnets made from green staff, Colonial Marines, Canadian Militia with round hats again made from applying green stuff to a shako to get a brim, 93rd highlanders in trews and green stuff bonnets. Mixed bag of manufactures here with Marines Minifigs, Dundas Minfigs and Warrior, Canadian Militia Lancashire and Warrior and 93rd Warrior.

Each battalion 16 x 15mm figures so 32 figures in total giving 64pts

Nest up are some independent companies and to make them standout from light companies each base is 3 figures.  Eventually there will be 8 of these units of which only 7 will appear here as i painted one before the challenge (Well the army was a Christmas present and was planned to be a painted one to be presented on Christmas day i had to give him some units painted)

Leeds Rifle company, apparently at some point in the campaign they captured a supply of American rifle uniforms and decided to wear them. Figures from Minifigs.

Mohawks again from Minifigs, these figures are really well sculpted and a joy to paint 

Two more units of Indians figures from Lancashire games this time

Canadian Voyageurs figures from Minifigs

So 5 companies of 6 x 15mm figures gives 30 figures for a total of 60pts

So for this post the points are:

Artillery Battery - 20pts

Flank Battalions - 64pts

Independant companies - 60pts

Total 144pts
