There are some good figure ranges in a variety of scales 6mm/10mm/15mm/28mm and of course, 1/72 in Hat plastics. I'd say buy the rules for a fiver, and start to plan your armies.Trebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-57117877143430313882020-11-19T19:27:58.225+00:002020-11-19T19:27:58.225+00:00I never thought about doing that period but now yo...I never thought about doing that period but now you have me intrigued.<br />NeilNeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340245421938640537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-87772980503940072772020-11-18T22:13:34.617+00:002020-11-18T22:13:34.617+00:00Thanks!

Dig those battle cars!<br />Cheers,<br />IonArchduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-60145349540131430922020-11-18T20:07:51.605+00:002020-11-18T20:07:51.605+00:00I've certainly published more and painted a lo...I've certainly published more and painted a lot.

"It's Wargaming, Jim, but Not as We Know It", and it'll do for now. Plus, if it wasn't for all of this lockdown stuff we'd never have spoken so not all bad.Trebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-61601363328227388292020-11-18T18:14:17.370+00:002020-11-18T18:14:17.370+00:00Yeah, this is the way to crush a rebellion.
The b...Yeah, this is the way to crush a rebellion.<br /><br />The battle was good fun enhanced by your quick battle resolutions, adjudications, rules' explanations, and efficient movement of troops.<br /><br />The Usurper was given a good ole' one-two punch and had a tough time regaining balance once knocked about. Had I realized how long it would take for the heavy infantry to negotiate the ditch, I may not have been so bold with the advance of the battle carts. Well, charging in quickly made more sense than waiting around to be shot to pieces, I suppose.<br /><br />This remote gaming works well. Thank you all!Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.com
