A long long time ago when there was a shop called Wargames Warehouse at Chrome Street, I discovered the Alternative Armies range. At the time I think I was playing Empire with Stuart, Glen and some other lads whose names I've forgotten. Early 90's I think.
I found the politically incorrect attribution of mythical races to Napoleonic Europe and surrounds highly entertaining. The Elves were French, Orcs - British, Undead - Russians, etc etc. Over the next day or two I shall share my painted figures for the time. Not my best painting, but it is still better than stripping them and painting them all over again.
I will with time find their "correct" names and amend.
Cheers
John
