They really wouldn't 'do' for 6mm. The 'BB4ST' set I haven't really thought of in terms of 6mm figures, but I tell you what: you might like to take a squizz at the 'Vive l'Empereur' rule set that has been (is being) developed locally. These are designed for 15mm but might work for 6mm. They do require a form of labelling and indicators for morale status and ability to act, though. These devices look OK in 15mm, but not so sure about 6mm.<br /><br />The copy I have on my machine of this is way out of date, but I may have something newer in the archives.<br />Cheers,<br />IonArchduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650770985225450559.post-26942036270468481212014-07-15T12:52:21.947-07:002014-07-15T12:52:21.947-07:00Hello Ion:

I am making some progress on my 6mm Napoleonics and would like to get a look at your rules when they coalesce into something written, as this is the sort of scale I want to play in.<br />Cheers,<br />MichaelMad Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410143683610813671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650770985225450559.post-25399871038857581372014-07-03T16:15:03.922-07:002014-07-03T16:15:03.922-07:00Although not all my Napoleonics are Minifigs, or e...Although not all my Napoleonics are Minifigs, or even metals, the Minifigs remain my favorites.

I'm thinking of Pultusk, next, or maybe Durrenstein, though Austrians will have to fill many of the Russian ranks in either case...Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650770985225450559.post-61792575012465409622014-07-01T06:53:00.221-07:002014-07-01T06:53:00.221-07:00And there was I thinking that the black and whites...And there was I thinking that the black and whites were original woodcuts....<br />Great game report!Tim Gowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561988214539953646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650770985225450559.post-32731126091800736382014-07-01T06:07:18.671-07:002014-07-01T06:07:18.671-07:00Sounds very good!

I lifted one to play around with and I'll let you know about the results. If it looks good I'll email you a copy if you like.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.com
