I can't imagine this Owen Jones getting the shit kicked out of him by a couple of pseudo-Nazi drunks.

Well after my main client pissing me about spectacularly for a couple of weeks I am shortly off for extended periods of time wandering around East Anglia again....

Which means I will shortly be able to afford SAGA Hannibal - the figures for which I'll also be able to use for Infamy Infamy Punics when that comes out.

Fantastic book.
I hadn't realized until I went looking on ebay it was by George Gush. Excellent little intro and quick reference for a total ECW novice like myself. I've always avoided the period after a lot of boring school trips to stately houses in the area that played a part. Interest in the 30YW got poked fom a themed WSS mag and now I'm quite taken with it. Gradually making 15mm DbR armies that will probably be used more with a combo of DbR and Neil Thomas rules for solo play. Maybe an adapted DbN too.

Well it's where I'm from - still got the accent after 30 years living in Wales...

Believe it or not I spent the first decade of my life (give or take) in Essex!

But the civilised northern bit .

Still, will be wandering around National Grid overhead lines again. First item: Walk form Needham Market to Norwich.

There are also a couple of ECW battle scenario books 'De Bellis Civilis' 1 & 2. if you can get hold of those, they are great resources. I still reckon DBR gives a great ECW game.

I couldn’t get on with DBR, strange as I really like DBA/M.
I can’t recall if I’ve got those books still or I flogged them off. I’ll have a look in the stacks today, if anyone’s interested.
I get lockdown, but I get up again.
