Defending the Motherland from foreign invaders is quite a (historical) Russian tradition, so this is Bonus round theme I start my Russian Crimean War army- ready to Resist the those interfering British, French and other tag-along stooges who have landed on Russian soil!

I had intended this to be a more fulsome "first battalion" reveal but unfortunately, impacts of recent world events said no. But a start is a start, so here is a stout Russian Officer leading some feisty skirmishers to defend the Rodina - and after months of planning and painting I'm pleased to get the first batch posted despite being smaller than anticipated!

The 6 musketeers are metal figs by Great War Miniatures, and the Officer is a Warlord metal sculpt- together they form a light infantry unit in Sharp Practice plus a basic level leader.
Thats 7 x 28mm metal figs for 35+50 bonus = 85 points
Their brave but poorly trained friends will now make an appearance a little later in the Challenge.



Looking good Paul
