The Loose Association of Wargamers

Yes, a wonderful looking game! :-) I must finish off and post all the French flags for that battle... Cheers! But look, we must stop meeting like this. People will talk. You will of course have noticed, that there is barely a single French regiment that aligns with the orbat for Warburg! :-D I thin...

cheers Bogey!

Here's the AAR for our Christmas game, which this year was the Battle of Warburg 1760. Fought at the Wargames Association of South Pembrokeshire (WASP) using 'Tricorn' rules (SYW adaptation of Shako): http://www.jemimafawr.co.uk/2024/01/10/going-at-it-bald-headed-the-battle-of-warburg-1760-the-refig...

Lovely once again!

As you say, less can often be more. I stopped painting (most) shabraque-badges years ago, as combined with coat-tails, scabbards and other bits of kit hanging down, they largely obscured the dominant colour of the shabraque.

'Measure' alcohol...??!!! Who knew??!!

Hi Bogey,

The forum changed providers about 5-6 years ago, so you probably had an account on the old LAoW forum.

Anyway, glad you could make it. Sorry about the state of the place. If we'd known you were coming...

Cheers Roger!

And they could fight...

And as I've discovered on most of those occasions, it doesn't matter how big it is if you fail to perform...
