Bonjour à tous,
Un article un peu spécial aujourd'hui...
Traversons un siècle et demie en compagnie d'une sélection
de nos Prussiens...qui deviendront bientôt Allemands...
Hello everyone,
A somewhat special post today ...
Let's cross a century and a half in the company of Prussians, then Germans...
1806
Alors commençons par les bicornes,
Napoléon doit être battu, et la victoire est certaine
pour cette splendide armée...Auerstaedt et Iena seront bientôt de monumentales surprises...
So, let's start with the bicornes,
Napoleon must be fought, and victory is certain
for this splendid army ... Auerstaedt and Jena will soon be monumental surprises ...

On retrouve quelques années plus tard cette armée, le bicorne disparaît
et l'esprit de revanche anime chaque régiment...

and the spirit of revenge animates every regiment ...

SupprimerVery nice I have an 1806 and 1813 Prussian Army in 15m. Just one point by 1805 the sergeants spontoons had been abolished in the Prussian Army. I reused the figures by drilling them all out and replacing the spontoons with 25mm scale metal javelins and used them as standard bearers.

RépondreSupprimerToo kind of you Gordon, many thanks!
SupprimerThats an excellent post phil, very cool seeing the nation through time. I've thought of that at times that the prussuan troops we play fighting in 1813-15 may have been the ancestors of the troops of 1914 or 1940's.
RépondreSupprimerThat was the idea, glad...

SupprimerHi Phil,i like the theme of the regimental ages of Prussians & Germans set against the back drop of the Brandenburg Gate,a symbolic thing now fully restored.
RépondreSupprimerSplendid looking model soldiers too.
i especially like the scratch built stuff too.
It all helps create illusion by way of photo shots.
So well done on another good topic,that`s well worth looking at. BB
