The Loose Association of Wargamers

I'm planning to be there. Doubt I'll stay in the lodge this time,, its getting way too pricey

Cheers Eeb

Thanks for helpful answers. I think ive improvised something that gives roughly the right impression with fuse wire

Could be the origins. The Spanish Royal and Walloon guards had them for all ranks. Scarlet for troopers, silver for NCOs

Not really West ham Colours but probably close enough to baffle David Cameron


I do have an Orc Dreadball team in Boro strip.... Middlesbraaargh!!

Oh it does I think thank you!!. Seems like two loops connected to a central knot?

All fired up for Dragon Rampant after Ayton, I've now added this unit of grumpy vintage Dwarves. Figures courtesy of that splendid chap EB - thank you ! https://i.postimg.cc/DfPSZfz0/20240514-153202.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/90b0NbkZ/20240514-153234.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Xq4X8msn/20240514-153445.j...

Does anyone have a better picture of an 18th Century shoulder knot, in the style depicted here on a WAS Spanish Royal Guard ?

Super! Congrats on a splendid display

The lodge meal was one of the poorest I've had at Ayton. I'd prefer to eat somewhere else.

I find the forge much improved nowadays in quality, options and atmosphere
