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...

Thanks fellas! Yeah, it's worked out at only about one game per month, but that's much better than recent years. Have a good 'un!

Where the hell did that go?! :0 Well here we are again... If the excitement is getting all too much for you, here's my wargaming review of 2023 to help you drop off. Here's wishing everyone here a very happy, healthy and wargame-filled 2024! http://www.jemimafawr.co.uk/2023/12/31/jemima-fawrs-review...

Excellent stuff once again!

Yeah, there's always a bent bayonet, a fallen tree, bright yellow tape-measure or wargamer's groin somewhere in shot...

Anyway, Happy New Year to you too!
