Lace 'n Big Hats

Lace 'n Big Hats is a diary of my lead adventures. The title comes from a remark of Martin Rapier, a member of TMP. Lace 'n Big Hats aggregates historical periods such as the Lace wars, Seven years war, Napoleonic Wars etc, which had this elaborate dress as one common factor. I like the phrase so much I am thinking of using it as a name for a rule set I am working on. My historical interests are actually a bit broader, so I will be throwing in bits and pieces from WW2 and even the Modern era.

28mm Napoleonic British 1st Dragoon Guards

This completes my Napoleonic British Cavalry. I have some for the Peninsula and for Waterloo. These are the 1st Dragoon Guards. The metal is from Elite miniatures. The British had better pay for Dragoon Guards. At times they downgraded regiments in order to save cash. Not good for morale!
