Recently, I've spent my time working on the 12 Cuirassier regiments - a never ending task that occasionally leaves me losing the will to live.
In between times, it's fun to achieve concrete results with the Smohain hamlet and the adjoining farms.
Here are some images:

| Southern edge |

| Overview - the Nassau defenders are in place but the French are yet to be attached. |
 |
| Entrance to farm |
 |
| Grenadier company - the bases are yet to be hidden |
 |
| The joins in the track are too obvious at the moment but will be disguised |
 |
| Barn to the East of the main farm |

| Track skirting the farm heading North-East. |
The buildings in Mmohain (also known as La Marache) follow the scheme in the map below and are built by my father from modern images on Google Earth, but suitably adapted to 1815.
The buildings are arrayed on a table and are not quite in their correct positions. If you take a Street View search on Google Earth you can how they look today.
