26eme Regiment: 1811

 ...

The 26eme regiment is the latest addition to the Napoleonics collection, bolstering the French forces to near parity with the allies:

Perry Miniatures

This regiment appeared in many of the major battles of the Peninsular War, including Sabugal, Fuentes d'Onoro and Salamanca, before being sent East to serve in the campaigns of 1813-14.  

Attempts at randomness

Using what was available, these are dressed for somewhat inclement weather.  They were intended to be a quick and easy job - by Napoleonics standards.  How wrong I was, these seemed to take far longer than intended.

But it brings the French up to 13 foot units now.  Which is real progress.

More hopefully to come this year yet!
