Brigade Games - Janissary Napoleonic Infantry.

Whilst itching to kick off the Infamy Project, these needed to be completed first. Purchased a couple of years go, they have languished in the box of shame awaiting that certain spark.
Inspired by Mark's excellent collection over on his blog 1866 and all that. it was high time they made it to the paint table and more Ottoman forces opposing the French in Egypt.


The Janissary's are from Brigade Games excellent range of Ottoman forces. Let's hope they can stand against the French columns.
 

Uniform information for the Ottoman's is rather sparse, but the white on blue has the right feel, I pulled the flag design from the web in the absence of any commercial flags available.



It was nice to get these battlefield ready...
I could easily be tempted by Brigade's camel mounted French but that's for another day.
How we just need a club night to get them on the table

  3. Very nice indeed Stu, I would be doubtful they would stand against a French column but you have to give it a try I guess!
