A Napoleonic Overview

For the lack of a better post, here's the list of all the Napoleonic figures which I have completed to date (or are in the making).

Here's a few remarks before we start:

• All armies need more artillery for a decent grand-tactical game.
• The Austrians are the most numerous (if we count the French only by themselves, and do not include their allies), which is good.
• The British army is really not in my interest, so it is as it is.
• The French have the most cavalry, but perhaps too many reserve formations (and I've just bought some Grenadiers á Cheval).
• As you can see, after a while I was quite fed up with all the French infantry in blue, so I added a lot of allied infantry to the mix. I think it was a good decision - different uniforms help differentiate between raw and experienced units, while adding visual variety to the wargames table.
• I was surprised at how small the Russian army is, even with the militia boost they received. Of course there is little chance the entire thing would be fielded at once. I'm on the hunt for the Zvezda foot artillery.
• The Spaniards are really a pet project, I should add more light infantry and grenadiers, but that's it.
• It seems that my original plan to use 6- and 10-figure cavalry units has paid off, as I can field more units and the infantry/cavalry ratio is usually right, not so much on the individual army level, but across the entire collection.
