    1. At the moment it´s house renovation time and there´s not much space or time left for gaming. Another ACW battle is planned first...when some floor space is free.

  7. I'm awestruck, Paul. I knew there were a few, but....
    Could do with a few more Napoleonics though, eh?....

    1. I love the look of a Napoleonic wargame, the colours etc..lovely. As a nipper I started on napoleonics and ended up with a collection of some 14,000 painted, which makes my collection now look tiny. Sadly, virtually all of them ended up in the bin or buried in the flower beds.
