I thought I'd let you know that I have started play testing my BBB (Bloody Big Battles) scenario for the battle of Neerwinden - 18th March 1793.  I've used Baccus soldiers for both sides - the Austrians have been a mix of SYW & AWI troops, with at least a paint makeover and at most some remodelling - the French are sold in Bicornes (whew!) with some minor kit bashing thrown in.  

Anyway, you can see the game so far here:

I will give you the link to the full Austrian army when I have photo'd them.  Here is the link to one of the more interesting conversions to date:

I trust that this inspires you to have a go - part of the fun is looking at the existing Baccus range and thinking....  if I just change this....  

Cheers  Colin

Gorgeous work, Colin - really showing how good Baccus figures are for that massed battle effect!
