Yes Tim, it'll be good to see you too.

The next personalities will be for the 1715 Rebellion as there aren't any to go with them and then I'll seriously look at the Grand Alliance, so you might get what you're looking for.

Thanks for the compliments gentlemen, they are very much appreciated. Barry, I meant to mention on Saturday that the Dutch Guard are brilliant and really look the part (Sorry, I think I was half asleep after the drive to Dumfries and I still hadn't woken up properly before we left to go home!). As B...

I'm trying to sort out the Prussians for the GNW with a release date of October in time for the Derby show. As you know they were involved in the later part of the war and the same troops can be used for the WSS. I'm sure I can look at Skiloper as they appear to be a conversion of the earlier Norweg...

Tim, I'm busy trying to get them painted at the minute but as soon as I do I'll get them onto the website. We've all been to shows this weekend so it's slowed up the new lists being updated aswell. They should be on very soon. The new pictures of the replacements of the old JGR3, 4 and 5 should be o...

Jim and Ray,
If you're both going to Durham on Saturday you can sort it all out in the car park in the period way.
What are your weapons of choice? Pistols or swords?
Bring your seconds and I'll referee!

Alternatively you can both bring your troops and join in our club game.

I agree with Clibinarium. I've checked all my reference material and I can't find Trojada. It more than likely is a corruption of Drogheda.

These are excellently painted for 15mm figures. Definitely some of the best I've seen in that scale for years.

Heneborn,
As Barry said 'Great Unit'. I look forward to seeing your other figures when they're finished. What army are you going to fight them against?

Reiver Castings have a range titled "James II and the Glorious Revolution" in 28mm which covers armies from 1688 to 1697 (conflicts involving the Grand Alliance, Ireland and Scotland). The older figures in the range are being re-worked but JGR 2 is already available. There will be other releases soo...

I downloaded the Wargames Journal last night and I thought the article was excellent.
