All the same I'm happy with them, and that's all that really matters.<br />Cheers.<br />Trailapehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056073765543722079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2517690696075361865.post-69543469048241779372013-01-27T14:55:57.049-08:002013-01-27T14:55:57.049-08:00I'm a fan of your blog.

I will look into Lasalle (although I am sure I could use Black Powder as easily).<br /><br />Consider I knew nothing about the period bar the old Waterloo movie I am learning quickly with the help of a few good mates.<br /><br />It is the colours of the Swiss uniforms that blows me away. They really stand out from the normal French uniforms and I will have to look around for more like it.<br /><br />Keep up the great Blog Posts. They have been great eye candy for Napoleonic Gaming :)<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />AllanAllan and Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17898982877395708415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2517690696075361865.post-70586179686951109052013-01-26T15:19:50.761-08:002013-01-26T15:19:50.761-08:00Hi Allen

Do you want to command some Battalions (Lasalle) or some Divisions (FoG-N)?

Lasalle uses base widths as the movement scale, (eg move 2 BW in line), so no adjustments required. I'm not really familiar with BP, so can't really help.
