Leo Barron's Epic Waterloo game!

 Leo Baron - for whom I am currently painting through the 'Hannibal Barcas Army' box set - sent me these photos of his superb Waterloo game using Epic miniatures in vast numbers so with his permission I share them here. I think they say it all about why the Warlord Games Epic concept has taken the hobby by storm, they look like real armies, big battalions, affordable models  and designed for ease of painting. Leo tells me there are even some of my figures in there somewhere, painted a few years ago now as I recall. 

At this stage of the game the Imperial Guard and Prussians were not on the table!

  2. Truly Epic!
    I saw a show report yesterday from Colours at Newbury and a group had put on a big Hannibal game …. Cannae in all of its glory!

    3. That's great, thank you. Leo is actually in Arizona US, I paint Warlord Epics for him here in the UK though :)

      I have had three attempts to get my email re verified on TMP but they neve seem to come through so can't post!

      Cheers,

      Lee.
