The Loose Association of Wargamers

Wonderful stuff.


Willz.

Those Greenspan maps are inspirational, I have them in the American Heritage book, written by Bruce Catton, and the slimmer but larger volume that came out a few years later. They are always a pleasure to look at and see things you missed before, and such great ideas for period buildings as well.

Oh nice!

Looks excellent! The full battle weekend at Alex's a few years ago was brilliant.

DBACW 1st day at Gettysburg report.

I spent an enjoyable time playing the game solo. The Confederate came close to breaking the Union who managed to hold on. Hill Corps did most of the fighting as Ewell was plagued with low CAP dice rolls throughout the game. Lee was heard to grumble that had Jackson been present he would have taken Gettysburg.

A full report is available on my blog.

Bit of a klepto, then, was he?

Next game set up and ready to go.
