Desert Island Wargames

Henry's Compendium
Honours of War and enough paper to work out solo rules.
John Ray's SYW collection, just to give Tim H something to chuckle about.

It would also help if I could have several casks of fine red wine from France, Austria, Germany and Italy.

Not read that R F Delderfield in many years, good book.

I think some people may be a little disappointed by what the Desert Island gods will allow them to take with them.

This was my take to sea book for twenty+ years until I lent it to someone who didn't return it .
Just ordered one from flea-bay for £3 .

Unless things have changed dramatically in the last generation the art of making fine red wine is not common knowledge in Germany. Austria, well at least they have cut down on the anti freeze in their white wines.

Book - to be decided
Rules GdeA
Figurseseses - my 15mm Napoleonic collection with farsands of unpainted ones added to keep me happy

Please sir can I take my painting lamp? There is lectric on the island isn't there?

[FreddBloggs]

Nice Spanish reds to go with the French and Italian.

Some New Zealand and South African wines as well, Chilean wine is nice as well, and whites from the origanal three, as well as a range of method champagnes.

Flawed reasoning
Anything you take to a desert island will get ruined/abandoned so you should take what you don’t care for.

Book- Black Powder
Rules - SPQR
Figures - Those plastic WSS figures. There’ll burn well.

Books make ideal toilet roll.
