The Loose Association of Wargamers

I really love my SYW French army. They rarely win but they have colour, presence, panache. Anyway, on display: 19 infantry battalions, 8 cavalry regiments, light troops, artillery etc: https://i.postimg.cc/3Jj47ZvV/fa2.jpg The van, guarded by light troops: https://i.postimg.cc/Nfv9Wn5R/fa1.jpg https...

A very attractive game. As I expect from you. Can I ask a question on flag size? Please keep in mind you could write what I know about the AWI on the back of a postage stamp.

, however I need to wait until the better weather as I do not have a large table indoors.


Willz.

the mind boogles at the thought of how big that table will need to be!

Looking forward to seeing the assembled ranks.
