The Loose Association of Wargamers

It took me a while to realise those were dates in LTs post and not quantities... Probably...

You're all a bunch of amateurs when it comes to lead and plastic piles.

Do you have the fantasy and space hulk type Zombicides, if so, how do they replay?

Mine are some Barry Minot 1806 Prussians I bought to paint up as SYW Jager types in 1975 ish.

I have a couple of c1975 Minifigs or Hinchcliffe fantasy figures in the collection but they did mostly get painted last millennium. There might be a couple unpainted in the dark recesses of the shed.

Garrison Greeks for me c 1977/78. And finally getting repainted !

btw if anyone has any Garrison (only Garrison, not minifies or Hinchliffe) Greek Cavalry (Heavy or Light) or the Greek Slingers then I'd be interested in relieving you of them !

After a recent "restructuring" of our garage/my storage and painting area, I have the following*:

40mm
- About 20 British AWI light infantry

25/28mm (1:50)
- Enough Foundry AWI to refight Bunker Hill at 1:1 (all metal)
- Enough Perry AWI to refight the Saratoga campaign at 1:1 (metal and plastic - the latter about 8 boxes)
- Enough Perry and Eureka AWI to refight the Gloucester Point action at Yorktown at 1:1
- More Perry/Redoubt/Conquest/Crusader/Miscellaneous AWI-era Indians than the Indian Department had
- Quite a lot of King's Mountain, Fife & Drum, Westfalia/Black Hussar AWI products
- Two small armies of Perry WotR plastics and afew boxes of metal commanders
- Three substantial Perry Napoleonic SP2 forces - Bavarian and Austrian (both 1809), Brunswick/KGL (1811)

These five items are for sale if anyone is interested:

- Couple of thousand Dixon/Roundway/Hallmark Marlburians
- Some early Jacobites (Matchlock, I think)

5/6mm (1:300)

2/3mm (1:600)
- Two smallish flotillas (flotillae?) for a Coastal Patrol game of the Slapton Sands debacle

* I'm not sure even this list is exhaustive, but I would point out that quite a lot of this stuff was given to me by grateful clients/generous fellow gamers, after I had written articles for them, or given historical advice on new ranges/projects they were planning. The oldest items, in terms of my ownership, are the 25mm Minifigs Napoleonics and 15mm WSS Dixons who date back to the early-/mid-1970s.

No I don’t Fred. Only the modern setting one. And the first edition at that.

Heard very positive things about the Black Plague version from friends but never played it. Don’t know anyone with the Space Hulk version.

What rules are you using for AWI Baron? (At the moment, my painted forces are enough for a smallish SP2 game, but there's enough in the lead pile to expand this considerably.)

Let me see. Shit tons are imperial, buttloads are metric.

On the plus side, I am now immoral.
