With the new campaign book coming out I thought I should start building my British The Silver Bayonet list. Unfortunately my recent bring and but successes has meant my choices are somewhat limited.
This was not a big issue as i had already decided to build the core of my list around the 85th Rifles.
The bulk of the figures are from Elite Miniatures Australia I purchased two of each of the British Rifles Command Pack and the British Rifles Skirmish Pack
These will do nicely for the bulk of the figures.
I will add a Veteran Hunter
A Supernatural Investigator that will also double up as a Doctor.
An Occultist
A Marine
A Sapper
A Sailor
and maybe a Highlander.
The four additions are just to add some variety from game to game and should fit in with some of the new additions that are sure to be in the campaign book.
The list at this stage is a Leader (sword and two pistols) and 5 riflemen (5X18=90). This doesn’t leave many points for something else like an Artilleryman (10), Doctor (10), Grenadier (15), Infantryman (10), Marine (12), Sailor (12), or Sapper (12). My preference is always to start with the maximum number of seven figures so I may have to drop one of the riflemen and take an Artilleryman, a Doctor, and an Infantryman
I am eagerly awaiting for my pre-order of figures and the campaign book to arrive. In the meantime I will continue with the riflemen.
