They were sadly on the other side of the table from me, or they'd have received a damn good lancing.

I think that was a euphemism.

No it's a large village in West Sussex.

Isn't that a euphemism. Can you dance to a bass euphemism?

Six months ago I 'put my foot down with a firm hand' and mentally banned myself for starting any new wargames projects...

OK, maybe only a small skirmishy-type project. Absolutely no mass armies...

Yeah...

So here's my new ACW project... :moredrink:

Well done, looks like a great new (non-)project and amazingly quick too.
Looking forward to reports of the first big game.

Cheers! Yes, I'm planning on doing a couple of trial games, with a couple of divisions per side in a month or so and then the first day of Gettysburg at the end of the summer.

Yes, the 'Jap' Division always seems to raise eyebrows... The XI Corps is coming next and they used crescents as the div sign, so a massed 'O' Group looks like the HQ of the Sultan of the Sublime Porte.

I thought Grizz was the only LAW member who could do that?
