Above and below British Auxiliary Legion (BAL) infantry battalion from Capitan. I am putting together the FoB3 stat's for my First Carlist War collection. I thought it might be useful if I shared them here alongside the pics. The rest will follow in future posts. I have been guided in the categorisation by King's Carbine in "All Honour is Lost".
The BAL fielded 10 battalions, guns, two units of Lancers and Royal Marines and supporting Rockets. Enough for a side in a game of FoB3 if you so wish. I have Isabelinos too and they will appear here subsequently.
The Spanish found the BAL to be notorious slow coaches. Accordingly I will deduct a minus 1 from all their infantry movement dice. The nimble Carlists will get a plus 1 on theirs. I'll be using the Crimean War play sheet with the rocket stat's from the Napoleonic section.

Obviously you can roll for the Combat Dice for each individual battalion and some will prove more mettlesome than others.

The British Royal Marines from QRF. A rocket battery has been promised too. I'll certainly add one if opportunity presents.

BAL artillery from QRF. I rate them as regulars and those are 12lb guns.
To follow, the Carlists and then the Isabelinos.
Love all the colours on the Westminster Grenadiers!
ReplyDeleteThe First Carlist War has some great units to paint.
ReplyDeleteVery nice work indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks, more Carlist War stuff to come at the end of the month. The French next I think.
