Good Ground LLC, What is the “Cracker Line” and what are Cracker Line Miniatures? The Cracker Line was opened up in the fall of 1863 to supply the starving and suffering men of the Union Armies of the Cumberland and Tennessee. When U.S. Grant replaced the lamenting William Rosecrans in Chattanooga, the first thing he did was to open a supply line running past Wauhatchie and into North Alabama to Bridgeport via Brown’s Ferry. The volume of supplies shipped to Chattanooga increased every day thereafter. The spirits of the Yanks rose along with the supply of good ole army hardtack crackers and fat back. The supply line soon took on the name of its most frequently transported item, hardtack crackers.

The Cracker Line was born. I could think of no more appropriate a name for miniatures designed to re-fight the battles of the western theatre of the American Civil War. Therefore, almost 150 years later, Cracker Line Miniatures were created. Cracker Line Miniatures are finely detailed 10mm American Civil War figures designed specifically for the Western Theatre of the conflict. They are designed by Bill Moreno and sculpted by Bob Soutar. Each figure is designed in a classic fighting pose which mirrors the famous artists of the period such as Don Troiani, Keith Rocco and Dale Gallon. They wear slouch hats, great coats, sack coats and bedrolls which were typical of the western theatre and its rough terrain. With Cracker Line Miniatures, Johnny Reb of the Army of Tennessee and Sherman’s famous bummers of the Army of the Cumberland and the Army of the Tennessee can once again take to field. So re-fight battles such as Shiloh, Stones River, Perryville and Chattanooga, the battle for which the line is named, with Cracker Line Miniatures. We have also now added Plank Road Miniatures for the great Eastern Battles of the American Civil War. Both Lines are available exclusively from Good

Miniature Flags for Historical Miniature Gamers and Collectors. Complete 10mm Game System and Products for the Napoleonic Wars (La Petite Armée) and American Civil War (LPA:ACW, Limited Edition).

If you have been thinking of getting into war gaming the Napoleonic period, you’ve probably been overwhelmed by the questions, choices, and amount of information and advice out there.  What scale of figures?  What level of command when choosing the rules, and then which of the dozens of rules available do you use?  How and where do I get the terrain?  Will I be able to find an opponent who has made the same decisions I have?

The decisions may seem endless and daunting to a new gamer so I have created the LPA Complete 10mm Napoleonic System.  It is just what it claims to be – COMPLETE! – a ready to play game right out of the box.  It’s not like some “complete” starter sets that give you a couple of bags of unpainted miniatures a set of rules and a couple of paper buildings.  Each LPA Complete 10mm Napoleonic System comes with two painted 10mm armies, one French and your choice of a British, Russian, Prussian, or Austrian army as an opponent – over two-hundred figures and guns already mounted on flocked, magnetic movement stands and metal magnetic brigade stands with the appropriate national flag.  You also get all the terrain you need to set up an attractive 3’x2’ battlefield including three 2’x1’ battleboards, six hills, eight buildings, twenty trees, four fields, four stone wall sections, four sections of hedges, one stone bridge, and material for roads and rivers – and everything is already painted and/or assembled.  You get a set of rules, La Petite Armée, with reference cards, markers, casualty caps, and markers – even dice and rulers.  And everything comes packed complete in a handy, portable box for easy transport.  And you don’t have to worry if someone else has the same scale figures or plays the same rules.  Since each game is complete, all you need is an opponent ready to play.  Games with the basic set, representing a Corps of 15,000 plus men on each side, can be played to completion in 2-3 hours.

Many of my customers have purchased just the basic game system and fought dozens of enjoyable battles over the years without every feeling the need to expand what they have.  Others have added additional games, armies, terrain, etc, to fight the size battles they are looking for.  I myself have the equivalent of four games worth of terrain and over 2300 figures in my set.  It is up to you. If any of these apply to you, then welcome to the world of Le Petit Armée Complete 10mm Napoleonic System. This system is designed to provide you with one-stop shopping when it comes to your Napoleonic gaming needs. LPA is based upon a set of rules of the same name, and every item you need to play using those rules can be obtained using this system.

And LPA is not just for gamers new to the Napoleonic period.  I myself have been gaming for over thirty years and many of my customers are also experienced players who have been attracted by the smaller scale, easy to learn and play rules, and overall look of the LPA system.
