Timbo, there will be plenty of loan troops available, so don't worry too much about that.

Well, there is a thought. A discussion will have to be had about that I feel.

Well, it is encouraging to see that there is still some interest to make this a goer, so onwards and upwards as they say.

Sadly, I believe Gary has already concluded that Men... King's is the way to go. Perhaps with my own Native movement and Regular and Colonial reloading rules bolted on?

Actually,no. I'm happy to use whatever rules people are happy with. My Colonial rules of choice are Black Powder, but I believe TMWWBK was selected because forces are smaller and made it easier for people to assemble an army.

I'm quite happy sticking with Colonial. Probably for both days.
