Rocket Troop Deployed ! (1 Viewer)

[Obee]

My Rocket Troop, RHA have finally been deployed on my Battlefield, following thier long voyage to 'the Great South Land'

(I think they must have come by sailing ship )

I've arranged them with a few other figures to give a realistic pose for the first firing on the rockets against Bonaparte's troops.



The addition support has been provides by a Section Commander (K&C NA 200) who is shouting orders to "Load Rockets" while a Gun Sergeant (K&C NA097) is ready to observe the 'fall of shot' while another gunner stands ready with rocket pole (Dep Prado 007).

I am most impressed with these figures, being the first venture by Thomas Gunn into the Napoleonic era, and by making unique figures that are most compataible with other bigger makers, he's sure to capture this part of the maket.

I'm sure looking forward to getting my next shipment of French Greandiers of the Imperial Guard, and the forthcoming 95th Rifles (see recent post for images), so keep up the good work, Tom.

Well Done,

John

They are the triple whammy aren't they - good quality, good price and that most elusive quality - they are compatible!

Nice John, will follow your ideas on how to display them, out of my depth with this series. Keep thinking the rockets belong to Napoleon, not the British, shows how much I know about the uniforms. Cheers, Robin.

I don't know how long it will suit TG to always be discussed in concert with K&C, but sets like the Rocket Troop and the Imperial Guard give someone like me the equivalent of double releases. TG and K&C will presumably avoid replicating each others releases, or in the case of the Guard will compliment each other, or like the 95th Rifles, will fill a gap. Good times!

Robin,
If you point the rockets towards French, from any era, that would be fine. Don't listen to any advice on this from Capitolron as we all know he supports the wrong side{sm4}

PS A great relesae from TG .
