I have a short piece about an aspect of my Crimean War project in the new issue of Wargames Illustrated. I thought perhaps some who don't take the magazine might be interested in seeing it.

I've just realised that the Crimea project has been going for less than a year. Astonishing progress. Well done you.

Nicely written little piece - but then as a teacher from our generation, I would expect nothing less.

Thank you chaps! Almost finished my next unit, just a few highlights on four figures and the basing to do.

While not really interested in the period, mate, I admire your figures and your prose. Good article.

The most recent addition to the collection is the Earl of Ulster's regiment. More as I'm sure you expect on my blog.
