What if we were part of underground alternative bands before we met? ❤️

I've always wanted to make a Sherlock Band AU, the idea came back last year with the creation of The Fusiliers (John, Sholto, Murray and Hayter), the last two based on existing characters from the original ACD stories, adapted for BBC Sherlock and expanded upon by @spooksicl-e and I. Huge thank you to them for humoring me and helping me shape the universe up! If you're curious about the fusiliers, go check her out!

Character interaction sheets and a simple timeline under the cut!

Hopefully there will be more to come, fingers crossed!

This is probably the most work I've ever put into a unit, especially one that's only around 100 points. The Freeguild Fusiliers are models I absolutely love, but every step from assembly, to painting, to photography was a real challenge. I can't see myself fielding a proper gunline of them, but I'm glad I've at least got a regiment done!

The 108th Schützen (Füsiliers) was an Imperial German Army regiment from the Kingdom of Saxony, active from 1809 to 1919. One if the few regiments that did not wear a picklehaube.

Having received Gramont's orders to withdraw, the Duc de Biron, in command of the French right wing, realized that a significant part of his command was too far away from the causeway to be able to disengage cleanly, and that there was every chance that the British could cut their line of retreat.To avert this possible disaster, he was obliged to commit his mounted reserve: three regiments of line cavalry, spearheaded by the Royal Cuirassiers.Their task was to turn the left flank of the British infantry advancing directly to their front.With the enemy closing fast, Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Andrew Agnew - in command of the Royal North British Fusiliers - refused the two central firings of his battalion, so that the troops were deployed in two inverted L-shapes. Obligingly, the French cavalrymen rode directly into the gap between the two groups of redcoats, receiving heavy point-blank fire from both flanks before retiring.As they withdrew, the troopers took further losses from the British fire, but they had halted the British line, ultimately giving some thousands of their comrades the opportunity to withdraw to safety.

Today is the 214th anniversary of the battle of Austerlitz! One of Napoleon's greatest victories. The battle of the three Emperors showed Europe that the French Emperor was not to be trifled with. I'm quite happy with this piece! Napoleon is in the heat of it here as he commands the fusiliers to advance. Meanwhile the elite cavalry of both armies charge each other head on in the background!
