Could we have that summary of where all the various  Baccstarters are again, Peter?  Not that any of them looked particularly close to the finish line...

Sorry for the late reply.  I'll have to see if I can get some time to pull this all together again.

Could I gently nudge this one back onto the radar?  It would be nice if we could collectively actually get one across the line!  But without a place for newbies in particular to see where we are, it will be pretty tricky.

I'm having a wee bit of an issue accessing the records at the moment.    My plan is that once the tech chappies finishes the Polemos app I will move him on to doing whizzy things on the site.  For Baccstarters I have in mind a page listing all of the proposals and allowing you to pledge.    This will keep a running total so that you can see progress.

FPW French Naval Infantry: 16

1866 Prussian Infantry in Fatigue Cap:10

AK47 advancing/firing & officers/radiomen 3 packs of 96

RPG7 3 packs of 12

PKM lmg 3 packs of 12

SA-14 GREMLIN 3 packs of 12

USSR Airborne (not sure if there is a vast difference in unifrom?)

AGS 17 grenade launchers 3 packs of 12

AT4 SPIGOT missile teams 3 packs of 12

RPG18 3 packs of 12

AK74 advancing/firing & officers/ radiomen (n.b. I am guessing that the poster meant 3 packs of these too).

 

I don't think any of the other suggestions had actual pledge numbers attached, so I have omitted them.  Naturally there are no pledges from the old website unfortunately - only the Baccus team will have them if anyone does.

Late FPW Zouaves in kepi are also useful for the ACW... so put me in for one!

From the old forum, the main pledges I can remember were for:

ACW infantry (with bayonets fixed? or was it in different poses?)

Irish Kerns & Gallowglass for the Wars of the Roses

Napoleonic French Dragoons dismounted (although this was before the re-sculpt, so perhaps Peter indicated that people should wait for this one; same for Napoleonic-era civilians)

I may haved missed some developments as I don't follow regularly the forum, but I distinctly remember some XVIth century references inquiries (landsknecht pikes and shots mostly).

Personnally, I would happily second some more 1870 minis (both for this war and to extend the scope a little bit to the East and 1855/1877. Tunic or long coat + Feldmütze Prussians would make 'wunderbar' Russians. Count me in for at least 3 packs of closed ranks and 1 of skrimishers) and any great Italian wars to (French) wars of religion of the 1500-1590 area (nearly any reference would get my interest and about 3-5 packs, preferably if I can get hold of a whole army at once!).

Yes, now you mention it I remember some requests for Great Italian Wars stuff too.  I think Peter will have to rule on whether he can still access the requests on the old Baccus forum or if he needs it all re-submitting.
