I'll await the imminent announcement of Purps incestuous pregnancy

What a truly, truly terrifying prospect. The Spawn of Purps. Isn’t there something in the Book of Revelations about this?

Especially the black musketeer in the rear rank. Would have looked better if the flag hadn't obscured half the unit.

A few Years ago, I was fairly sure the loose ass agreed to do 18th century on rotation that was all. Either I dreamt that or all your memories are starting to go or you were all way more pissed than me
I’m happy doing anything, Ayton is always a blast with you chaps.

I’d even happily do 20mm.

I've just bought the Twilight of Divine Right – new ECW rules. They are cheap and I want to see how the system works. There isn't any firing or melee to resolve. It's assumed to be happening once units get close enough to each other. This might turn out to be a work of genius, instead the game concept is based on morale. Although it's written to be IGOUGO I reckon it should be easy enough to adapt for card activation.

I shall Google the rules. I'd not heard of them.

No combat or shooting? Just what the Gateway like!

Reminds me of the Tom Lehrer line "They'd rather kill them off by peaceful means"

I think they do a WSS version. The concept is pretty much is done in Le Feu Sacre where there isn't any musket fire to resolve. It solves lots of problem especially given how close Napoleonic formations were to each other when firing. Sometimes down to 5 – 10 yards which may only be a few mm on the table top.

Shall we henceforth call thee Earl of Essex Boy?
