Last last Hotlead treasure post (a follow up to an earlier post)

 

So, I finally cleared some space on the gaming table to set up the Napoleonic troops that I bought and to find out how many I have. Well it is quite the haul! While I set them up as best as I could, I was not certain about some of the cavalry, no banners and similar uniforms meant that I had to guess which side they belonged to. 

I believe they were based for Napoleon's Battles, and some have small slips of paper to indicate the unit, but very few. Since I plan to use these for General D'Armee it does not really matter that much beyond indicating which army they belong to.

The French

The Russians

Treasure from Hotlead

 

So, I came back from Hotlead with quite a few items, so much that it will take a few posts to cover everything. The bring and buy was excellent as usual, plenty of great deals on a wide range of stuff. John got a massive East Africa WWI lot of painted troops, civilians, objectives etc. For my part the only painted figures that I found were two 28mm well painted British Napoleonic to be used in Silver Bayonet. 

I did find a lot of 20mm WWII resin vehicles for the Germans, Russians and Americans. I also picked up some boardgames. I also bought a lot of 3D printed buildings and scatter terrain, more on that later.

The highlight of the convention for me happened at the last minute on Sunday, just as we were getting ready to return to Ottawa.
