    Many thanks. That answered a lot of questions.
    I’ll invest in the starter armies I think and see if the new edition pops up next year.

    Are Ghar Empire / Ghar Rebels equal in difficulty to master or is one easier than the other?

    I do agree with the Black Guard. I love their look as well. On the other hand the Empire can field so much more Suits. 🙂

    Many thanks for the awesome feedback.
    I think I’ll look for a good deal and just pick up the core Ghar army set and maybe the expansion set for the Ghar.
    If anyone has any other feedback let me know!

    @Steve Burt hmm I think i’ll do that. The 1814 France campaign might together with Italy be Napoleon at his best.
    And a lot of action to tackle there.
    I think i’ll go for that! Thanks for the inspiration to get the brainjuices flowing. 🙂

    A lot of Napoleonic info stuck in my head but i’ve neglected the topic for quite a while. Although it is one of my favourite periods Antiquity and the Dark Ages tend to have first place.
    Been reading like crazy lately to reignite the knowledge somewhat. The detail and accumulation of facts is crazy compared to antiquity. Logical too given the progression of time.
    But it sometimes seems the player’s obsession with detail has grown along with it. 🙂

    Wasn t the garde d honneur linked to the old aristocracy families specifically or am i thinking of another unit?

    On a sidenote does Black Powder allow for cav themed forces? Or would that bounce against the limitations or scale of the game?

    That proves nothing about their quality in fact. Just limited engagements when they got the post. 😉
    True Old Guard are not very numerous either. So i should have been clearer about my intentions. I understand Old Guard alone limits options hence i am open to other aspects of the guard being collected as well. 🙂

    But Guard as a whole what engagements would you guys recommend? Hainaut for one.
    Anything else?

    If memory serves Nappy led the young guard in a large assault at some time. There is also a lot of Guard action during the 100 Days but perhaps this campaign is a bit overdone and limiting?

    I am also used to a more abstract wargame approach for historical gaming. Gmt games, dark age miniature warfare and jours de gloire. So small scope minis or abstract counterbased. A nappy project seems daunting to me. I do adore minis painting but i have mostly done fantasy and scifi over the years. Hence the Guard appeals to me as they look gorgeous and thus fun to paint.

    Tsss no respect for the veteran elders!!!
    We will have to differ. Then again the more time passed the less people see eye to eye on any nappy subject it seems. Concensus was long ago found non existant, and yet still murdered, quartered and then recycled into a near infinite interpretations and reinterpretations. And it will never be solved.

    Back to topic though as i am looking into potentially BP. A full Guard army is thus possible. Is there a pts system? Unit limitations? Or does BP offer absolute freedom?

    Eh. I subscribe to the idea they were actually good troops.
    I find the revisionism unfounded.

    Love your suggestion though.
    What would would you suggest one would pickup for a starting army of Guard. And one for Bavarians?

    True at that. It completely escaped my mind they were not even committed. For some reason my mind really thought they were. What theme would you suggest? Pairing wise and composition wise? I’m looking for ideas. 🙂
