Carlist Shako: My Armies 

My armies are based on the Orders of Battle for the Oriamendi Campaign.  My initial focus is getting the figures for the battle of Oriamendi.  After that I’ll expand to get all figures for the Oriamendi campaign in general, for example adding the like of the Cristino Guard Division and the French Foreign Legion.  The full list is below.
