Re: Base ID
I find identifying units (& their often individual stats) one of the challenges of wargaming. Armies were you get a lot of units that look identical - French Napoleonic line infantry or Zulu impis etc - make it a challenge to have differences between units. It's often easier to make them all 'va...

Base ID
Typically, any army I build will see an initial completion rate sufficient to game with, in a fairly short time. Then, over even years, I'll add a unit or two, re-base a unit or two, add or subtract figures, thus requiring a re-basing. Etc. My methods for basing are of 3-4 quite distinctive types - ...

Re: Dunoon - ECW game

Re: Dunoon - ECW game
BTW flag-wise for the ECW, I have acquired nearly all I need.
This often meant I'd name a unit not because of an OOB, or because I liked it but because I could get the correct flag.
One exception was Covenanter dragoon flags. My 2 units don't, & probably won't, have a flag.

Re: Dunoon - ECW game
Thanks, David.
BTW flags for this conflict are difficult to locate.
Free stuff on the internet that you can download & re-size is limited & bought stuff is the wrong scale (my stuff is 20mm).
You don't know anyone making flags, do you?

Re: The Battle of 'Wanneminden' 1759
Essentially perfect.
OK, the cognoscenti want to know:
what's the wooden arrow for?
the game cloth? Commercial or have you created it/
buildings? I recognise some resin ones & I think there's some laser-cut ones but some are scratch-built?
