Beneath the Lily Banners managed to make it beneath my house roof in NZ today! :lol:

A quick flick tells me that this is a most sumptuous production with surely the prettiest quick reference sheet I've ever seen.

Many thanks and well done.

I too am looking very forward to R2E (I just finished painting my third 36-man French line battalion and ordered the fourth). I'm scribbling ideas for illos already, but there are no concrete plans for organized work yet. I think the R2E manuscript is much farther along than BLB when we started on ...

I've finally fought my way through Paypal :shock: and placed an order. Pretty big of me as I don't even game the period ... but I'm still interested in seeing the rules! :roll:

Now about those Napoleonic rules ..... :lol:

Keep up the good work chaps. 8)

Ah ha! So how much to New Zealand? Or do I need to send an email to Wordtwister Publishing (like the announcement says :oops:). I just figure that if you answer here you wont need to answer the same query over and over and over and over .... And how much for the signature? :shock: And how about the ...

I too hit the bandwidth issue. VERY disappointing for the remote viewer! :wink: Time to start selling the rules to make war pay for war perhaps. BTW, the picture(s) in the David Imrie pages were distorted when I looked at them at work :oops: using Internet Explorer though they are fine on the iMac a...

Very nice. I particularly like the image on the home page... :wink: Agreed, very nice. I'm looking forward to the Napoleonic cover. Perhaps something heroic like Prussian hussars chasing down some of the Corsican Ogres finest! :roll: Salute von Peter himself, unbiased in all such matters :wink:

Hello Barry Yes, I'd spotted the pictures. Very enticing and even a few Calpe's spotted (I'm a Calpe zealot! :shock: ). And yes, I would very much like to meet up with some of the highbrow wargame types one way or another. :wink: I Also need to visit several shows, manufacturers, historic sites etc ...

The game/weekend sounds like it was a roaring success. Congratulations to the organisors, the players, the army & terrain suppliers, and the rule writer(s?). And commiserations to those such as myself who did not attend! :lol: Please let the forum know which issue of WSS the game will appear in so t...

Oh dear, more gaming expense to sneak past The Spouse!! :D A quick query: can it be sent in a plain brown paper bag so that the neighbours will think it is literature of the, errr, adult variety (and hence perhaps look at me with some form of respect!)? :shock: And don't forget that the Napoleonic r...

kiwipeterh, Golly, I've been using PayPal for many years . . . so I'm not sure . . . but I THINK that you are correct. Go to their website to be sure: https://www.paypal.com/ I do know that in all the years I've used it, I've never had any problems with it. It certainly makes online purchases easy ...

Stoopid PayPal virgin query ... :oops: I understand that you don't need a PayPal account to use PayPal (by using a credit card over the facility). Is this correct?

I shall watch for the Napoleonic rules carefully then. We have similiar problems when attempting big games. And we want the occasional BIG game. I guess I'll need to get a copy of Under the Lily Banners to aid its commercial success so as to increase the chances of getting Republic to Empire! :shock...
