A new army appears in my VSF universe. The French!
I already have the Prussians (aka Victorians) and British (aka N.S.W.) but "needed" a new army to make it more interesting.
The French army has been very methodical in re-building itself since the Martian unpleasantness.
Obviously they need big guns to protect the major cities and towns from any Martian resurgence.
Starting with the big guns:
 |
| Big fortress guns in emplacements on hills to deter those miserable Martians or even those pesky Prussians. |
 |
| A close up of the new emplacements and guns |
Also of course you if you are going to field a respectable army you must have cavalry to charge in and save the day or die spectacularly.
 |
| Heaven forbid any junior officer points out that cavalry have been pretty useless for the past 50 years. I can imagine painting some Roman cavalry and they would not look much different. |
 |
| Cavalry squadrons pass either side of the guns to search for evidence of Martians or other invaders. |
More to follow as I paint my way through the last purchase.
All figures from Pendraken and very nice they are. Don't get put off by my painting skills.
