In the British boxes the officers and colour bearers are the same mini, so 4 officers/standard bearers

I use Half again as many flank as permitted - IE. Grenadiers based for in the battalion, Light Based for in the battalion and Light again based for skirmishing, this uses some of the more dramatic arm positions

That would be what I would do. Makes for more interesting minis!
Take car. Go to Mum's. Kill Phil - "Sorry." - grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over. How's that for a slice of fried gold?

Still easy to solve
4 officers = 2 officers and 2 banner bearers for the kings colours.
4 sergeants = 2 sergeants and 2 colour sergeants for the regimental colours.
And thar yah go, you can use the flank box set for extra officers/sergeants for the flank sections.
It has been made very clear by members and Paul I am not welcome on this forum because I don't bend over and agree with everything warlord does.

Unfortunately I don't care what any of you think...at all.

Well 1 box of Penninsular flank and one box of Penninsular centre ordered this morning :) Finish work for just over a week on Thursday - although I have a very long list of things to get through these are going to be taking up a lot of my time
