I am very Intrested in the Uniforms of the Napoleonic Period.
Such as the British Regiment:

There are some good Historically accurate shows such as Horn Blower and Sharpe.

This may sound babyish but I use Lego Pirates to imitate battles.
I also am looking forward to next years Pirates sets. The theme is coming back after 12 years! Here are some Pictures:

Theses Uniforms are the Old Pirate sets:

Those all look awesome. >.< I'm glad they are putting out new sets, though. I'll have to look for them!

...And it's not baby-ish to use them. You got to use what you can get. E.g. I have a southern belle dress, but, alas, it is polyester. Not the best. *sigh*

Do you know when they're putting out the new set?

I actually read this yesterday, before I joined the guild.

Those facial expressions on the Lego's are quite nice.

If the blocks weren't quite so expensive, I'd be an avid user of them.

Uniforms back than were very dapper. War was dangerous but Napoleonic era soldiers looked good.
Especially Napoleon himself:

The movie Vanity Fair also has good examples of uniforms since the story is set during that time.

The mistake was understandable, as the user stated he had these envelopes, they are cheap, and he was enticing the user to buy them.

Though I don't believe he was selling them, he was simply stating some friendly info. badly worded...

Anyway, the point is (though totally late) This item is called War of the Warlords, and is estimated at 5,900 GG.

I think they knew what they looked like since I had 2 War of the Warlords on as Napoleon at the time.

I've seen that picture before. I used it as a reference for a mini-project in U.S. History like two-three months ago.
