Hi Bob, I scaled it to 1:100. Then, I went through and picked whole formations, instead of halving everything. For example, Lanne/Bernadotte were represented...
Hi Bob, funny you should ask that. We tend to play it the other way- blinds can interpenetrate and overlap to their hearts content. Equally unrealistic!...
Kev, glad you enjoyed it as much as me. I was in full "ignore wargaming, engage wife" mode yesterday. Until she showed me the parcel that arrived (my latest...
Hi all, I've put a few of my Austerlitz photos in the Photos section. Not as good as Kev's, but then I have captured his greatest hour, when he had his head in...
Interesting! It must create some difficulties for deployment if a blind is spotted whilst interpentrated with another. How do you resolve these? Bob ... blinds...
The improvised four-deep infantry line, as used by Wellington at Quatre Bras and Waterloo (did he use it in The Peninsular?) has been covered by Daz in earlier...

Repeating all the thanks everyone else has said especially Daz, It was great playing a bit part in a major game as you see things developing that you can do...
So inspired am I by the Austerlitz game I have started working on another battle. I don't have enough figures to do Austerlitz at 1:100, but Marengo is easily...

Hi all Has anyone played LFS in 6mm? If so, could you share your basing scheme? I am wondering how to morph my dbx style bases into something representing...
Hi Stu, we've not managed to play test a 6mm game, but your ideas sound as though they should work. I think the minimum number of bases for an infantry unit is...
Haven't played LFS in 6mm yet but soon hopefully. I sold my entire Napoleonic collection of 10,000+ figures to my mate Nigel. I based my infantry in two ranks...

We had our fourth LFS game today. Just a small affair (club Wednesday afternoons rarely allow time for a full size game - too much wheeling and dealing over...

Hi folks One of the suggestions that came up at Austerlitz has made me adapt LFS. Its concerning Firefights. I thought it may prove enlightening for those who...
Cheers for that Bob. I am always interested in others making a mess of things as I seem to always snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Glad I'm not alone! ...
