| British Legione inspected by Archduke Albert |
The Treborian High Command has decided to raise a Auxiliary force to help fight Ferraro Rocca . They have recruited a Legion of British ex servicemen . Unfortunately the quality of some of the recruits lack some of the more soldiery qualities , the Quartermasters department got a good deal on some ex British uniforms - sadly these are somewhat out of date (about 50 years) (no wonder they were cheap !). It remains to see how these brave chaps will fare against the enemy . The Archduke Albert was overheard to comment 'I hope they frighten the enemy - because they certainly perturb me !' .
And now back to the battle ...........
Great bit of background to the battle Tony!
ReplyDeleteThought the uniforms needed explaining
DeleteA very interesting new wrinkle for the battle Tony! This only adds to my anticipation for the next installment. I can't wait to see how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteThe next instalment coming soon.
DeleteNice background, I now see how they are not exactly the finest troops after the debacle in the previous post, hopefully they will bounce back!
ReplyDeleteThey have had a chequered history.
DeleteSo more a Walmington-on-Sea platoon than a crack unit of Guardsmen.
ReplyDeleteYes I think so !
DeleteHard to beat 40mm and A Gentleman's War! Keep getting tempted to add some of the Irregular range to my Little Britons.
ReplyDeleteThe figures and the rules complement each other.
