They look beautiful on the table! It is always good to playtest before you start the full battle report
Nothing to worry about. You titled it as 'test'. I would think most people will understand it is not a full length battle report. :)
Nicely done, impressive details at this scale, they look superb!!
@@philRminiatures thank you!
These look great, excited to see where this Napoleonic project goes!
@@TriariusWarGaming thanks Triarius. Hopefully I can get it on the table for the channel when its all done
They look great! The horses look very good 👍
@@mitchsminis thanks Mitch!
They look good 🙂 Looking forward to seeing how this project unfolds.
@@JackSargePainting Thanks!
Hello Sir, The Saxons had 2 and 1/2 grenadier battalions at Raszyn . Grenadier Bn. Einsiedel which was composed of two companies of IR Von Dyherrn (light blue facings) and IR Konig (red facings). The half battalion was composed of two grenadier companies of IR Rechten (dark red facings)【sort of like citadel's khorne red]. There was also one battalion of IR Oebschelwitz. I have to research their facings. Artillery consisted of 2x 6 gun foot batteries and two battalion guns from IR Oebschelwitz. Two squadrons of the Saxon Hussars were also present. Let me know if you need any other info. Oh, the Konig grenadiers had gold/brass buttons. I will have to research the others. Hope this helps.
Sorry, 1 and 1/2 grenadier bns.
IR Oebshelwitz had light blue facings and I think gold/brass buttons.
@@josephwalukonis9934 great information, thanks!
Insight. I have none. You'll have a painted list to play in no time. Carry on. :)
@@tolemykus4805 Thanks Tolemykus
👍👍
@@charleslatora5750 hope you are having a good day Charles
Cool 🏇

As far as I'm aware the Ottomans were suprised by the attack of the relief force which was already rampaging in the camp by the time they were able to mount any significant resistance . As such , my suggestion is that the Christians start with the garrison and the vanguard of the relief force on the board and gotta roll for arrival of aditional reinforcements . Once they reach the Ottoman camp you can either allow the garrison to sally out or make them roll for it . The Ottomans can command only the troops in the siege lines at the start and gotta roll to start activating the rest of their army (representing the timariots arming themselves , mounting up and forming into units) . I think you should also slap a bunch of debuffs on the timariots until they manage to get ready. You could also do a pre-battle roll for the ottomans to decide how aware they are of the relief force , a good roll either making it easier to get the timariots ready or even have a small force at the ready to meet the Christian vanguard . As for the Ottoman reinforcements , maybe some rolls to represent scouts/raiders returning to aid the fight ? I don't think the governor of Buda would be able to send reinforcements in time even if he wanted to , as they'd have to cross the Danube in order to reach Sisak As far as terrain goes , this part of Croatia is very mountainous and forested , going hilly towards the East so I am not suprised the Ottomans were unable to bring heavier artillery . This battle is kinda famous in Croatia for being the first major land victory against the Ottomans
@@pp-wo1sd good ideas
nice job, painted up pretty quickly
Well done sir. They certainly look like "true 15mm" and may even fit with the Warlord Games Epic Napoleonics.
@@JackSargePainting yes they are a bit on the small side for 15mm so I hope they mix okay, lined up with other figures I think the difference should be not so noticeable though
Unpainted miniatures arent allowed on the table around here. Its part of the impetus to get units painted, that feeling when you put them on the battlefield for the first time! (& watch them get crushed by a really bad enemy unit! Haha!) Great vid dude! 😊
@@danharris8805 thanks!
The lambskin on saddle was either white or black
@@regwirth3004 oh, lambskin now that makes sense
Keep living the dream. Nappies don't paint themselves. :)
@@tolemykus4805 🫡🫡
They were originally produced by a British company called Tabletop Games in 1980s.. Seems like Alternative Armies have now acquired the moulds.
Excellent haul
The Austrian cavalry was reorganised a number of times during the period, and it seems there was a phase where dragoons and chevauxleger were merged into a new category of "light dragoons". However, this was changed again. I guess it underlines the usefulness of picking an army from a specific battle or campaign when collecting your troops. I would be happy to share more info from books I have here, but UA-cam comments section isn't highly conducive for that. Do you have a Discord account or an email that you would feel safe as a space for exchange of ideas? Another thing to note is that Blue Moon are 18mm, like AB and more recent Napoleonic ranges.
Thanks for the comment Jacksarge, my discord name is corvinus_wargamer
@@Corvinuswargaming1444 No worries, I will see if we can catch up on Discord 🙂
@@JackSargePainting great!
@@JackSargePainting great!
I believe the “Light Dragoons” are meant to be Chevaulegre, that’s what makes the most sense as the Austrian cavalry never fielded “light dragoons” that’s more of a British term.
yeah, that makes sense. None of the sources on Austrians discuss them fielding "light dragoons " as such
Nice haul!
Hard to find better minis than clearance minis. Even if they are ugly blobs you can still use them for, um, blobs. Good thing these aren't them. I'm tired of typing blobs. :)
@@tolemykus4805 There are some other things on clearance I’m hoping to get, but need to exercise discipline right now 😅. Also hoping these figures will mix decently with Old Glory/Blue Moon, I assume they should
cant wait to see them all painted
@@wgeffoxdo9719 Thanks!
They look good. Nice minis.
@@theDexMcHenry thanks!
Hi. 👍👍 Look good.

Watching The Crusty Colonel's channel, a little bit of Napoleonic miniature action
@@charleslatora5750 Very nice
@@Corvinuswargaming1444 your video next. Just moved the Germans on Crete. Probably should have moved the aircraft first... Oh well
cool
@@tyedye3d thanks!
Great scenario idea. Sometimes can be hard to find information for 'smaller' conflicts. :)
@@tolemykus4805 this battle is covered a lot in Ottoman sources. One of my real world projects involves translating some documents published in the 19th century from Hungarian for this period but its slow going. That said I think its a pretty flexible scenario and you can add some imagination into it
How many figures will you need?
@@charleslatora5750 I think you could adjust the number of miniatures and miniature scale based on what you had or wanted to play, for example treating 1 base of 15mm cavalry as its own unit, or doing multiple battalions of 3 units each with ~12 figures per unit, like in Warlord Pike and Shotte or Baroque.
It’s awesome to see this ruleset pop up again! More publishers and rules writers should make campaign systems as a standard feature for their rules and not a supplement or an afterthought.
@@mitchsminis yeah I think its a nice solid set of rules, hoping to run it eventually for some Russo-Turkish wars of the eighteenth century
@@Corvinuswargaming1444 looking forward to those videos!
@@mitchsminis Thanks, probably not for a while but we will see
War bear does historical 3D printing, and I’ve got a bunch of his 7YW stuff. I was wondering what rule set to use, I’ll start here
I love a tight rule set. Whatever that means. :)
I had not seen this Osprey title yet. Thanks!
rules seem good, initiative in each phase definitely is a nice idea
Be interested in seeing game using these.
@@regwirth3004 I’ll try and put something together, I don’t think there’s any other stuff on UA-cam about these rules so its probably a good idea to
So did this rule set strictly cover fighting only in Europe? After all This was the true first world war. Fighting was different here between Britain and France here in North America vs Europe. I need need a historical book with info for this whole. Just got really truly interesting
@@charleslatora5750 yeah its strictly for the European theaters of the war, it says its not designed for the fighting in North America and India. Pretty Sure Osprey does have a blue book that covers the French and Indian War at least
It’s definitely one of the better blue books out there. I haven’t had a chance to play it yet, but it does have some things I’d like to borrow for other rules.
@@hangarflying Based on first impressions its got a lot of good details. Also seems easy to modify or draft up some national features for Russo-Turkish war scenarios
Lovely stuff
@@basicminiaturepainting Thank you!
absolutely lovely!
@@wgeffoxdo9719 thanks!
Do you know much about the Kazakh people during this period? I met an older man from that country yesterday, he spoke little English, and I only knew the word rakhmet for "thanks". I thought of you afterwards and how you knew a bit about the people of the steppe, and you may have understood some of what he said.
@@JackSargePainting about Kazakhstan not much, they had a khanate from the 15th century until the Russians conquered them in the 19th century. They and the Uzbek khanate centered in Bukhara were ruled over by descendants of Ghengis Khan though, the Shaybanid dynasty
Alright now we need a siege of Malta table with the fortress of Saint Elmo!
@@TriariusWarGaming it would be awesome, making a table for that could be really challenging though
