28/30mm shiny sounds brill.

I thought you said you weren't doing this ?

Open mind is fine but its also good to think about what the options might be especially for those of us who might need to paint some stuff

I'm keeping an open mind. And I agree, it is certainly good to think.

so, I had a very enjoyable cuppa a chat with Mr P yesterday. Lets make an optimistic assumption that this might (perhaps....maybe....possibly.....who knows) happen - who would be interested in the 28/30mm late 19th C Shiny game on the other day? I think we have me, CB and Peeler all with shinyfyingly appropriate armies. Anyone else in for this one ?

Count me in...(If it all happens). I have a small Colonial force ready and waiting for action.

splendid

I'm assuming that we are going to stick to standard sized AGW units. If so the only thing I lack is cavalry. I have 7 battalions of line infantry, 3 light battalions, 2 light guns, 3 rocket teams and a Gatling. I'll look at getting some horse but not much.

[goat major]

yes I assume you will. Thats a nice sized force then.

[Peeler]

so, I had a very enjoyable cuppa a chat with Mr P yesterday.

Funny how recent memories of the same event can be so different.

I've almost finished resorting my 30mm, and have some 42s to start on soonest

[Buff Orpington]

I may get some Spencer Smiff lancers and a unit of Boers to use as dragoons

[Buff Orpington]

A quick question on the Rifle Brigade, would natural leather slings be normal or should I do them in black?

[grizzlymc]

Black.
