After almost two years of painting, here are a few photos of the set-up!!! Before you are the armies of Stollen and Zichenau arrayed around the small town of
Above, the Army of Zichenau awaits the arrival of an independent company of the Wolmar-Bock Regiment? Now, where have they got to?
How will the battle go? Will the Grand Duchy of Stollen manage to repel the Zichenauer menace against the odds? Or will the Electorate of Zichenau march into Krankenstadt and reclaim the contested Duchy of Schleiz? Watch for further developments right here to find out!
Meanwhile, the stalwart Stollenians await their fate on the western side of Pelznikkel. In the middle distance, you'll observe the Leib (Grand Duchess of Sonja's Own) Grenadiers still in their company columns, sorting themselves out before forming into line behind the Von Laurenz Musketeers.
Victory will go to the side that holds the town at the end of ten turns. Arbitrary, yes, but it seems like a good compromise when one is moving all of those soldiers himself. Look for updates as I complete the various turns of the game. Charge!

Looking forward to reading about the battle.
Nice one.

The set-up is picture perfect. The OS stamp on the ensemble of troops, table and scenery is very appealing.
Have a wonderful game.

Stokes, you must be feeling a great deal of satisfaction that your time and effort spent on the project has led to this display. Congratulations not only on a pair of well-painted armies, but on a full set-up that is exactly the "look" you were after.
Sincerely,
Ed v. H-F
You should be justly proud. I just wish that I wasn't off to a rehearsal scheduled from 3-10 . . . I won't get to see the occasional updates.
Everything looks great. Have fun.
