Re: Die Kriegskunst: Wargaming the Seven Years War
Obviously, just because *I* don't like written orders, it doesn't mean they aren't a good idea. Just my personal preference. With DKK, the c-i-c writes orders for each brigade using a menu of key terms - move, hold, assault etc. To change them, you need to throw 6-8 (depending on nationality). The ...

I haven't seen them, Donald.
Interesting comment about written orders. Do you mean writing orders for every turn, or just at the start of the game?

Nice work, Andy. Can you get a model lifting one hind leg, to pose behind Fred and other assorted personality figures, as the mood strikes you?

Re: What's on your workbench?
Good point. I had the same issue with the Perry "supply wagon" and innate clumsiness. A couple of tufts underneath the body, to hide brass tube supports, perhaps?

Re: What's on your workbench?
The always "helpful" photo of the completed model..... :fp: It looks like the support-struts-and-springs bits have been twisted and bent, mate. So you'll need to do some very careful bending and twisting to make them match each other and to fit the coach body and axles. From the other phot...
