Prussian 3 up cavalry by Perry

 Looks like my buddy Anton will have cav for his Prussian army.   When is the question as these figures have just been sent for tooling.  The Perry Brothers are the big force in being back 28mm Napoleonic gaming.   


Painted ‘3up’ Russian and Prussian cavalry
For those who didn’t attend Salute here’s what we had in the cabinet plus a few more along with a few samples of the command, again ‘3ups’. The set will allow you to build not only Russian and Prussian Dragoons but also Russian Mounted Jager regiments and detachments of Prussian Mounted Volunteer Jager. The Prussian regiments will be able to be represented in Kollett or Litewka. There will be a large variety of options for poses too, more than any other Napoleonic cavalry set we’ve done so far. There will be 14 mounted figures in the set.
These are in tooling. There’s no release date at the moment.

1809 Saxons released by the Perry Brothers

 Yo Anton.  Perry Miniature has looked at your Prussian Army. So they brought out 1809 Saxon to join


NEW! 1809 Saxon Infantry
As promised here are the 1809 Saxon Infantry. They’re quite different from their 1806 counterparts in that their knapsacks are now supported by two shoulder straps in the middle of the back, the lapels at the front have been hooked down the front as far as possible, high collars added (both to follow ‘modern’ fashion and to give a little more protection from the cold) and overalls have now been adopted as standard. NCO’s have also handed in their polearms.

Saga 2.0 Age of Arthur

 Looks like the Latest version of Arthur Saga has been released.   I remember when the Version 2 Saga rule had been officially released.  A lot of people hated the version. Finding people who played Saga in my area was hard.  Most are died in the wool Warlords Caesar player. Or DBA from Phil Barker area.   

  Have invested in Saga only to have the rule become shelf dust queens.   I not ready to throw more cash in the Saga blackhole.   But is a review of  Age of Invasion.  Let me know what you think.
