September 20 is the 170th anniversary of the Battle of the Alma, the first major battle of the Crimean War. While I have a good sized collection for the war in 1/72, I have been gradually collecting figures in 54mm as well. Today I pulled out my British and Russians to make an inventory. I think I will give the About Bonaparte rules a go as my figures break down into units of eight figures and the tactics of both sides had not changed from the Napoleonic wars. I also have French Zouaves for the French side of the battle. Ideally, I need to paint up a few more units of Dorset Miniatures Russians that I bought several years ago.
