Adding a couple of units of sailors to my latest Belle Époque army ... or should that be navy?

I decided to add two naval units – an infantry unit and an artillery unit – to my army of the Commonwealth of Britannia. I found some suitable pre-painted Essex Miniatures figures on sale on eBay, bought them, and they have now been delivered.

A Royal Navy sailor equipped for service ashore as part of a Naval Brigade.

I will be varnishing and basing them as soon as I can, and this will enable me to field a small Naval Brigade that consists of a unit of Marine Infantry, a unit of Naval Infantry, and a unit of Naval Field Artillery.

  1. BOB,
    This is excellent news- nothing like having a Naval Brigade for your Britannia army. The sailors will go well with your 6" long Gunboats. Best Wishes. KEV.

      I have enough figures to create several other naval infantry units so it might be possible to add similar units to my other armies.

      All the best,

      Bob
