Out of the 49, I think 29, so a decent proportion, and that's actually played, against a real life opponent... it doesn't include all the ones I no longer have, and I've just realised I've missed at least another one, so call it 30/50. Then there are the ones that are actually wargames books, that happen to include rules, like Lost Battles or Battle.

Now that sounds like a good idea for a new thread

Mr Vintage probably uses tablets of stone.

I think I posted it elsewhere - but: https://aleadodyssey.blogspot.com/2020/ ... -evil.html

This naturally doesn't include all the rules i have owned and then binned or given away.. like Empire, Napoleon's Battles or Newbury 'Fast Play'.

Can I just add that I was doing really well, working my way though the pile, until a certain EB of this parish provided a shed load of ACW stuff. Years of abstinence & control down the drain.

Enablers, dealers, temptresses is what they are. You're happily getting on with what you've already got in your pile, and someone comes along and tempts you into something new. We're like nympho whores.
