Duplicate books require a new home

Hello all! Merry Christmas! I'm afraid that due to a busy life, or as is more likely, ageing mental faculties, I have managed to acquire several duplicate copies of books. All are in Mint condition. These are 1) "Bataille Empire" Napoleonic Rules (English edition) recently released 2) "Marlborough's...

Re: With Talon and Claw

G'Day, Barry. I received my copy in semi-rural Eumundi yesterday, so the Antipodean connection can again be confirmed. Wow, what a great production..so much good material. I do hope more detail, pictures, uniforms, etc could be produced on this forum or as .pdf article, etc on the more esoteric conf...

Re: Bonnie blue flag ACW rules

Hello, Kev, Dave & Steve. I have just found this thread while googling "Bonnie Blue Flag", having just ordered a copy from Caliver. I am looking for a fun simple set of Napoleonic rules (no disrespect to RtE that I also have, but I'm afraid I seek simpler fare, Barry, with the possibility of smaller...

Re: BLB3 The War of Three Kings now available to preorder

Gidday, Barry! (and Gwen!) My book arrived in rural Eumundi (in the land of Aus!) yesterday in good condition. I have thumbed through, and very pleased I am that a - weekend is forecast so I can "study" it in depth! Looks great. First pages...really like the idea of different dice like in Donnybrook...

Re: BLB3 - Cards?

I'd prefer to buy the event cards as a playing deck rather than a download...time poor, I'm afraid. Cheers, Rohan.

Re: Hello

Hello & welcome, Meic.
Good to see you on this forum, too.
Also looking forward to BLB3 as a chance to dust off the WSS figures that migrated to the back of the cupboard when mid 18th Imaginations and SAGA pushed them there.
Cheers, Rohan.

Re: 'Marlborough's Danish Troops' - article from Military Modelling

Hi, Phil. The Danes were my first troops in this period before the "gaming butterfly" struck. :D I should like a copy of this article too, please, so will send email just now. Cheers, Rohan.

Re: Happy New Year 2018!

Happy New Year to all from "The Land of Oz" or "The Great Downunder"! I have dragged myself away from the tennis (Roger Federer continues to impress at all levels) and am back to Fighting Talk after a time "drifting in different waters" game wise, and am excited by the prospects for 2018, especially...

Re: French artillery NYW

Hello, Sven. I think at the period you ask about, the gun carriage & limber timber sections were a brick red colour, the metal fittings were black, and the barrels natural metal colour.
Cheers, Rohan.

Re: Scots Militia Pentland/Covenanter Risings

Hi, Pikeman. As militia, it is very unlikely they had uniforms at all. So I would picture them in everyday dress, with the Hodden Grey cloth predominating. Their breeches would be a mix of everyday cloth, especially greys and browns. & for headwear, I would picture a mix of bonnets, caps and hats, w...

Re: A problem about a 18th Century Wagon

Hi, Belg. I have glued the cart shafts under the bars on the side of the horse, my reasoning being that this represents some harness fitting hooking to the shafts of the wagon. I then have glued thick thread from the bar on the second horse, back to the ones on the first to represent tandem harnessi...
