 North West company with Metis vs Hudsons Bay company. 

Interesting incident to do in black powder games.

Ive taken amother Kings shilling

 My friend Pat Melanson from Shelburne invited me to join the Loyalist New Jersey Volunteers. I can borrow their uniforms so i don't need to make any new investment.

British 1812

 I picked up the Italeri box of Waterloo British Infantry which was designed to look like they were in square.

And I was happy to see 2 styles of shako

So those of the older style will become Uniformed Canadian Fencibles while the newer will become 1st Foot. Or they could become 100th Regiment. I'll have to check my kit

The 100th Regiment had Redcoats faced yellow
