Dear Strelets
I think this is an fabulous set and the thinking behind it excellent.
My first reaction was to think of these chaps on guard duty. I am more interested in creating dioramas than war gaming. However, there is phenomenal lack of stationary troops, even for war gamers.
For instance when creating Napoleonic armies there is a need for Fighting troops (attack and defence), Marching troops (advancing or en route), and Stationary troops (including on guard)
It would be wonderful if you could apply the idea of 'before the battle' troops to the Napoleonic era, after all, the Old Guard spent a lot of time standing still at many a battle.
Best regards

Unfortunately we had to compromise on the shield in order to place all figures on one mold, otherwise we would have to make a separate mold for the shields.
In this case we would have been unable to have 48 figures in a box but only half of it.
Regards,

Dear Strelets,
good to see that you are working on figures in reserve. As you say in all the battles of the past usually just a part of the soldiers fought, while others waited for their turn. So can I hope for more figures (infantry and cavalry) in a waiting position?
As for the shields, what would you think about producing some decail-sets?
Did I read this correctly? Did you say moat/wall combination? Wow, you do listen. Diorama stuff, fortifications, etc. in soft plastic (please no resin) would be fantastic.
