get C F Weisencrafts, Pike and Shot wargames book, either an old second hand or I think John Curry does a reprint.

The rules are very 70s, but the second half of the book is enough battles with map and oob to keep any wargamer happy for a while.

When you say the Caliver ones are these the little booklets released for DBR? They are actually very good and have a ton of scenarios in them.

Noooo this was a proper Wargames book, like the featherstone ones.

The Australian Army Historical Unit has put out some very useful books on Malaya (& other Australian battles). Osprey 'Campaigns' sized and priced, with good maps and useful descriptions. For the complete list https://www.simonandschuster.com.au/sea ... /N-1z0xpk1

I'll get some tiling sheets for the roof but I'm trying to resist going the full LT on it. No working plumbing or lights.

Resistance is futile, you know it deserves the full works. How about a mini speaker to relay the call to prayer, go on, go on.

As a matter of interest how big is it?

The compound perimeter is 550mm square which is perfect on those floor tiles because they are 300 cm each so it leaves a foot path around the outside. I am considering a sheet of rugs and carpets for the rooms inside.

We had a theory that if your uniform fitted straight off the shelf you were probably entitled to a medical discharge on account of your deformity.

On my workbench are several platoons that have now had the 'goop' mixture applied to their bases.. it's a long way to go. Especially as I still have at least three more platoons over and above the 5 I am actively preparing.
