Re: Denain 1712

Thank you so much Chris for sharing your opinion with me😀

Re: Denain 1712

@ Alessandro.

It's not a battle I know much about. On your recommendation, I'll do some research.

Cheers.

Re: Denain 1712

My fault, these are not dragoons as I thought, they are instead grenadiers. It would be anyway interesting to see some boxes dedicated to other countries which fought during the WSS, maybe prussians or austrians to represent the siege of Turin

Re: Denain 1712

Alessandro, I totally agree about the other nationalities, especially Austrians, Bavarians, and Dutch troops. And I apologize to Stretlets for my above mention of needing Grenadiers. I got on your site today and there they were, and I know that they will be beautifully done. Can't wait, and thanks!!

Re: Denain 1712

Nice to see the French finally managing to win a major engagement in this war!

It did seem to unravel the Confederate's gains, leading to a peace that was hard for sections of British opinion to take, used as it had been to news of a series of victories. See Gulliver's Travels for a taste of the controversy.
