It's at times like this, folks, that you realise how sensible HM Armed Forces are in banning three topics of conversation in the Mess - religion, politics and women. I realise I'm as much to blame as anyone here for contributing, but I think we should do the same.

Yep all 78,000 of them at the next head count. Under de pfaffle there will not be enough soldiers to fill wembley.
And yes, Elizabeth Battenburg, sorry, Mountbatten Windsor, has lost her 99 year old househusband. Sad, but not 4 days cloth tearing sad.

Are you saying that families who move to the UK can never become British, even after several generations...? It's funny, but it sounds like you'd get on fine with Germans of a certain political clime.
This thread is about buying wargaming stuff so let’s take note of VBs very sensible prescription on another thread and get back to it. There are plenty of places on the interweb to disagree with people on non wargaming topics.
Anyway this week on the recommendation of CB I have taken delivery of a boardgame called Tarletons Quarter which has a rather nice map of the Carolinas which I’m hoping to convert into a campaign map for use with my AWI armies which are......(drumroll) NEARLY FINISHED ....
In all seriousness I think the southern campaign has a lot in it that can work as a wargaming campaign - big enough to be more than pre battle manoeuvre, small enough to be gameable with proper battles rather than only skirmishes and the ability to fight more than one big battle. I’m going to be putting some of my - albeit limited - brainpower into this into 2021 .
