Trumpians don't maneuver, they build fortifications Yuuuge walls, and their enemies pay for them.

UPDATE
Thanks to Gary , I think I can keep the Dahlia/Chindrastan thing going. We'll need to do a bit of squinting so that Zulus and Madhists appear Indian-ish, but in essence, I think I can make it work using some systems I've had for years for semi-automating the native contingent and recycling casualties.

So, as you were, and I'll be in touch again shortly.

Jamie, if you're reading this, please email me with your full (actual) name, address and email so that I can include you in my email updates. Also, do you want me to allocate units to you, or have you already corresponded with Gary to borrow some of his?

Also, Jeremy, forgive me if I've gone mad, but I don't think you've told me the name of your imagi-nation, nor of any of your generals. It really does add nicely to the atmosphere if everyone has a named, fictitious country and at least names for the commander-in-chief and the brigadiers. I think that I have these details for everyone who has taken part in my campaigns before. Same for you, Jamie.

I’ll teach Jamanicus some Zulu insults to get him in character. Can’t wait to hear Zulu spoken in a Lancashire accent! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Lancashire! You never said about that. He'll need to be quick if he wants to get his visa organised. Hopefully Peeler will turn a blind eye to the quarantine regs
I know when to go out
I know when to stay in
Get things done

Ta. If you were a patron of my Patreon gig, you could read an article I just wrote about this sort of thing...

Just sayin'. ;)

Well....the VISA is all good....technically have a life-long assurance of entry over to the white-rose country. Being an original bona fide border guard (from Rochdale) we're obligated to make regular trips....to make sure none of our strays have debased themselves and stayed over that way too long!! ;)

Gotta say....really looking forward to using the 'Horns of the Bull-Buffalo' on some unsuspecting Europeans!! I just have the ZULU theme tune playing over in my head!!

Think will defo have to get Jeremy to teach me some ZULU slang for the game!! Henry...can we build in a 'taunt' mechanism....kinda like a Haka??!! haha

Hmmmm. Calm down Jamanicus. They might look like Zulus, but they aren't Zulus. This is an imagi-nations game and their accents will be distinctly Indian sub-continent. No horns of the anything. No Michael bloody Caine. You’ll see.
