I am in no way a fan of the smaller sizes, 20mm being my limit. But that is an excellent piece of work. The table looks fantastic, and the troops look very convincing. A spectacular effort. Deserved first prize in my book, but congrats on the second prize. Superb work.
Rules? You ask me what rules do I use. No, I don't do rules.

Thanks fellas!

Yeah, 10mm (and god forbid, 6mm) wouldn't normally have been my first choice, but three years ago I looked at how much time and cash would have to be spent re-starting ACW from scratch in 15mm and there was no contest.

You're not the only one. Per Broden's 6mm Poltava game won Best in Show-President's award at Salute.

Yes, I saw the photos of that game and it looked outstanding. :thumbs:

Being stuck in a dark corner under the escalators certainly didn't help our chances. :hair:

That's a splendid looking game, but I'll stick with my 28mm ACW though.
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

Never mind - you stopped the Billy Goats Gruff using them, and that's what matters in the end. :thumbs:
