Victory or Death! #2

Here's the guerrilla colour bearer in all his glory, based and ready for action on the table-top this Friday night.





The flag motto translates as:

For King Ferdinand VII
VICTORY OR DEATH!
5th Battalion of the Volunteers of La Mancha


As I haven't had a game in over a month (gnk...excuse me...gnk...twitching a bit lately), I fully expect this brave lad to be an early victim. I'll be playing a long delayed game against John R. and his hordes of lackeys of the Corsican Ogre. My forces of light and purity will consist of my British and Portuguese combined with my masses of Spanish, so it'll be an interesting game to say the least!

  7. I suppose the standard bearer will have many troubles to fight in a ambush party! :-)
    A great work
