Expeditionary Force 2019 Napoleonic the News
Very pleased to inform you of the release of two new sets in the “54mm Napoleonic Wars –1812-1815” range.
- 54 FRN 12 Polish Lancers
- 54 BRT 10 British Light Dragoons (1812-1815)
All models are supplied unpainted. The sets are available for shipment next Monday, 30 December 2019.
Polish Lancers appear in many armies and wear basically the same uniforms except in different colors. In the French army, they appear in Blue (Polish) and Red (Dutch).
The Lancer officer is not issued with the lance and has his aiguillette on the right shoulder. (Troopers have theirs on the left).
There is a glued-on dropping horse-hair plume on his shako. This is non-regulation in the French army. (They are embellished with plume and cords for a parade.) This item is added at the request of a regular customer and since we have space in the mold for such a small item, we just added it in.
His shabraque (saddle cloth) is that of the leopardskin, popular among light cavalry officers of the period.
British Light Dragoons
The Light Dragoon officer’s uniform is similar to the troopers except for extra lace on his shoulder belt and a more elaborate sabretache. ith this release, the only remaining set in the Napoleonic British range is the 95th Rifles. There will be however a few option-sets based on these British models for the Canadian army in the War of 1812.
Next release
The next set in the production queue is the Early Germans (60 GMS 01 Germanic Symmachiarii) to be released in March 2019. These are tribal allies of the Imperial Romans participating in military expeditions for vengeance or pay. They form separate divisions in the Roman Order of Battle.
Cheers,

I just got the email from X Force and at the bottom it has prototypes of WW2 Japanese figures.
James, as I noted in my article I just posted I get a copy of the dealer’s email which is sent out several days ahead. It does not contain the preview you got. Rahway sent me the news on the 29th, but I have been back up with other things until tonight (December 30th). Finally, when I start to write the article my mouse on my computer died, which delayed things for a half-hour until I got a replacement.
