Lovely work, Andy. You've got Fred's snootiness down pat.

Re: What's on your workbench?

Very nice, Mark. They're one of the better looking "white" armies. I have the figures for Lubomirsky and Graf Brühl's light horse, but the chances of them seeing paint are receding.

Re: The Battle of Corbach 1760 (Game Report)

The SYW is the most spectacular of periods. And Mark's collection is amongst the most spectacular SYW wargaming armies. As always, i really appreciate the photos & report. donald What Donald said, in spades. You do a good looking game, Mark, not just interesting scenarios. Though I thought the ...

Re: In the service of Altefritzenburg...

Andy, if my last post came across as a criticism then I apologise. I'm impressed (and a little jealous) of the character you paint into your figures, mate. But intent doesn't always come out on board posts, as some other tools in the box pointed out, so I thought I'd clarify what I meant. As for the...

Re: In the service of Altefritzenburg...

OK, Andy. You're doing some lovely work, especially for someone who had to relearn how to paint after so many decades, mate.

Re: Why machine guns?

I haven't researched the C15TA in detail, but they didn't arrive at the front until late 44 (2 years after the half-tracks). You may be correct that they went to the Canadians and other non UK formations. I haven't really looked at the Canadian and Polish ORBAT. One reason that there's very little ...

Very nice, Andy. Have you ever done any larger scale (54mm+) figures? If so can we have a peek?

I'm not familiar with WAB, but the tweaks you suggested for the Romans were interesting. Relieving the first line isn't possible in most of the rules I've played. That's a very impressive game, mate, and some very nice figures (the old farts with white hair excluded :evilgrin: ).

That's impressive, mate. When I tried to access the link I got a 404 error, all three times.
