I’m busy basing up my 18mm Blue Moon British figures so I can field 3 Line and 1 Shock units of infantry for Rebels and Patriots to game the British retreat from Lexington and Concord, I will field the Colonist as Skirmishers. I need to paint the 3 Line units and make some split rail fences before I can game this. I’m hoping to get this done before April.
How many men per unit?
We get slapped around, but we have a good time!
Skirmishers are 6 figures as are Cav. Line and Shock Infantry are 12 figures but you can beef them up to 18 figures by paying army points. Arty is 6 figures and a gun model. So I have 36 figures of British Line infantry to paint up as I have the Rebels and 1 unit of Grenadiers/ Shock infantry painted already.
Are losses by figure, then?
We get slapped around, but we have a good time!
Yes with minus to moral so your units may run away.
Rebels and Patriots are sister rules to Lion Rampart and The Pikeman’s Lament.
Ahn. I have Lion Rampant.

RaP reminds me a bit of The Sword and the Flame, with added silliness.
More painting is done. I hope to have 36 British Red Coats painted by April to make the anniversary.
Still slowly getting them painted muskets are done, next flesh.
Weekly update, I’m working on the red coats than on to black hats cartridge boxes and shoes.
So, how do you like the figures, Kyote?
They have more detail than I can paint now that I am old. After I get the basic paint done I’ll give them a heavy ink wash and call it good.
Coats are done now the hats cartridge boxes and shoes.
Just clear coated my British so I can give them an ink wash and then dull coat them. I’m zooming !!!
I need to glue 3 flags on, otherwise, they are done!!! I surprised myself at how fast I got them done. Found my white glue so the flags are done and I based some of my Continentals.
More of my Continentals based and I’m trying to make split rail fences.
