This man Terroni has too much time on his hands. :wink: Only yesterday he was asking if I was needing a hand with the scenery for Sevastopol (next years presentation), I did mention that I have some fortifications needing painted. and he has graciously offered to do this to his usual high standards....
My dear Colonel, Your praise of my gallant lancers is gratefully acknowledged. Your quip about standing in the open to be ridden down by my Cavalry is however, not your only other option to "hiding". I seem to recall some of your fellows forming square. Not only did they stand, they even had the aff...
Bon Soir mon cher Colonel, Yet again you skulk and sneakses ups on peoples (down smeagol). At Hohenbrunn, you hid in a wood, at Flussgarten, you hid in a ditch. Just how did your batman get your nice uniform cleaned up for the photo shoot? And you are mistaken in your re-collections. Having crawled ...
Mike, The original version appeared in W.I.75, then re-published in W.I.134 (Nov. 98) page 14 with due credit and acknowlegment to the original author "Stephen Simpson".

Barry, As usual, half asleep. Rules I have sent for your posting on the site. I cannot take any credit for these, as they were originally published in "Wargames Illustrated" around about issue 70 something and later, republished in Nov 1998 issue 134 under the heading "Three Battles of the Jacobite ...
Sir, I must crave your indulgence, the good Colonel and I did enjoy " a pint" over lunch, and it is astounding the intelligence one gathers from tongues liberally loosened by alcohol ! Following the strenuous constrictures of having ones photograph taken by your good self, he thought it better to re...
My Dear Sirs, One must apologise to ones Commanding Officer, and colleagues. Whilst my Brave 9th and 11th Divisions were protecting Flussgarten from the advancing Prussian Hordes, France's finest, my indomitable 10th, and the heroes of Hohenbrunn were absent without leave in the bridgehead camp. I b...
Ciamar a tha sibh - (how are you?) No Lindsay, ye're nae daft pal ! But ah tell ye this man, if ah wis a poor wee sassanach (an ah mean lowland Scots as weel as Engleesh here) ah wid be fillin ma breechs as weel if ah wis tae face a highlan charge ! Barry was correct to take account of the reputatio...
My Dear Colonel, If the truth be told, Senor Terroni may be correct in his assumption regarding barn doors and my ability to hit them, so I am realy glad you did not avail yourself of pistols at dawn. :oops: And alas, my girth has grown so large of late, that my fencing ability has been seriously co...
Admittedly, Revo do them, but not a patch on size or quality of GMB.
My Revo Flags were consigned to the "bottom drawer", but then I have sacrificed authenticity for visual impact. (Do wish I could paint linen accurately like LOA)
