Ryan Hopping's 1/32 Battle of the Thames 1813

 This is a great setup recreating the famous battle that saw the death of Tecumseh. Some of the figures are the Expeditionary Force War of 1812 figures. 

Here you can see Tecumseh's forces move their left wing forward - into a 2nd advancing battalion of Americans, led by Richard Mentor Johnson (James' brother). Proctor's line decimated with about 250 captured are seen on the opposite side of Backmetack Marsh.

James Johnson's battalion of mounted riflemen smash British General Proctor's lines. (ExpForce figures seen in the far right)



Ryan says 'There’s Armies in Plastic British, Americans and Native Americans here, along with Barzso figures now out of production - not many as their height is a smaller 1/32 scale and ExForce is more like a 60mm. The AIP figures go great with the EF.'
