28mm ECW

To be fair I'd enjoy most periods if I could just be given all the stuff and then it was taken away again when if finished with it.
Like a wargames project library

Ayton 2021, get cracking.

I’ve gone off the idea of 28mm ecw.
I mean storage wise now, for two small SYW forces, I’ve had to buy a new cabinet just to put it all.
28mm figures and terrain are absolutely bonkers.

SYW - a couple of figure batches bought to be sold on again. Just too little time and space and I worry that by the time I've got round to it everyone else will have moved on. I'm betting on pointy sticks these days. Though i keep hovering at the Eagle miniatures stand at shows, he must think I'm a bit odd.

30YW - got really interested in the period this year and its morphed into a small ECW side project that has inevitably stalled. I'd throw Elizabethan in there too. Its the only period I previously knew almost nothing about.

Crimea - dabbled with DbN using Naps. Would love to do this some justice in a small scale at least.

Imperial Rome - first figures I ever put paint on but never been back to since. But those Aventines and Victrix.... Mmmmm...

WW1 naval (more Jutland than Coronel/Falklands).

The others are all skirmish-level, so all are eminently feasible, except the Inkerman/fog-of-war game because nobody makes British in greatcoats.....

20mm too, which means EB will 'man crush' on you forever!

Just beat me to it.

Wait no, EB will say these aren't proper 20mm.

I have some he could buy off me

VW - When you say you have some, are we talking 20mm Tumbling Dice Crimeans?

I want to do Marleyburians and Hindian Miwtinknee
