This edition of the Osprey Men-at-Arms Series is an excellent resource for giocatori wargame e figure painters interested in recreating the Italian o Armata Napoletana delle Guerre Napoleoniche in miniature. The Neapolitan Army, in particular, was small enough to be completely manageable for beginning ed experienced figure painters alike. Neapolitan troops were magnificently dressed, e the army contained a relatively large guard component which shared many of the uniform features of the Guardia imperiale francese. Despite their splendid appearance, the combat record of the Neapolitan army was well below average, e giocatori wargame will be hard-pressed to win battles con these troops.
