MY NAPOLEONIC RUSSIAN ARMY - JANUARY 2021 UPDATE

As I said in the general Napoleonic page I started building my Russian army as a project for the 200th anniversary of the battle of Borodino in 2012.  It now contains 7 infantry brigades, 6 cavalry brigades plus a Cossack brigade. More than enough to fill one side of my wargames table.  The latest troops were a 3rd Brigade of Grenadiers.

Kutuzov, Kutaisov and Col Toll - Perry command

Barclay, Ermolov, Uvarov and Osterman-Tolstoy in the cape - Perry command

3 Infantry Brigades of 4 battalions

2 Grenadier brigades of 4 battalions including 2 Pavlov Regt battalions

All of the battalions are of 24 figures - based for Black Powder rules.  Most of the infantry figures are by Rava however the Opolchenie and the Pavlov Grenadiers are by Steve Barber.  The infantry flags came from the Foundry Napoleon flag download whilst the Opolchenie icon banners I adapted from the internet.
