I'd like to see some figures in march/march attack poses and some artillery in action poses.

I'd also really like to see GHQ' s Napoleonic rule set. Any news on how that is going?

Daryl & I are working hard on it - presently it's crunch time at work for Daryl so he's a bit behind where he'd like to be. Progress is being made & we'll be doing a couple more test games to work out details for some innovative mechanics. Since these are new concepts we want to make sure we have it right before presenting it. So we're taking time to be very careful.

We think you will be very pleased with the results.

Sköl,
Sven

Thanks Sven. Good luck with it. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Complete the French forces

I would like to see the French completed. I have a descent French force to field but am lacking the Guard units and skirmish figures. I know the Guard were normally held in reserve at major battles....historically. Wargaming is about fighting the battle to achieve an outcome and it is never fought the exact way it was historically. The French need that heavy reserve to not only influence the enemy's decision cycle by their mere presence, but also to deploy them in to combat when necessary. I have some "other" brand Guard units and skirmish figures right now and there is quite a difference in the quality of miniature (my whole Army looks better than the Guard and skirmishers since they are not GHQ). I do appreciate the continuing expansion on the Austrians. My forces for Wagram are coming along nicely.

Unless I've missed something, there haven't been any announcements of new Napoleonics for the past couple of years. This is very frustrating because the range as it stands really isn't comprehensive enough to be of much use. It's a shame because the GHQ figures are beautifully sculpted - in fact they are probably the nicest figures on the market in any scale. However, I've given up on them and gone back to using 15mm figures.

I'm still hoping to see the rules though. I fully intend to convert those to use with my 15s.
