Waiting for the postman/postwoman

I'm sitting at home, waiting to see if our street will be blessed with a visit by the post person today, and wondered what other people's recent experiences with the Royal Mail is like.

If we're lucky, we'll get a mail delivery service by the Royal Mail 3 days out of 6 (not necessarily every other day). That's mail such as small parcels and letters. Next day delivery will arrive when it should, via a post van devlivering this service only and larger parcels.

Obviously this hit-and-miss service has knock-on effects with letters containing bills, reminders, appointments, and sensitive information, never mind toy soldiers.

If it was official, "post will be delivered every other day" I wouldn't mind. But its the not knowing if a post person will turn up, or not that is so frustrating.

Hi Mark

Thanks for the update.

So just to clarify using British Milan as an example, it is listed in the Support section as Inf:ATGW. Because it is in this section it is not Dedicated, therefore it is limited to a single ATGW shoot per game turn?

To clarify this in the rules, I think on p50 you need to mention that Inf:ATGW in a Support role such as Milan, can only fire once per game turn. Maybe it needs to be an additional bullet point and be added to the table as well

QuoteHas anyone read any good accounts of battles or even one part of a battle for AWI or ACW ?

Robert Krick has written two books about the ACW in the Shenandoah Valley that are well detailed.  A great set of ACW historical novels is by Ralph Peters, starting with "Cain At Gettysburg".  His battle descriptions are telling.

Also you can look back through this forum (What are you currently reading) where I review many books on the ACW.

Last post by Leon - Today at 01:31:39 PM
We've had a lot of requests in our shop recently for more scale modelling type product ranges, so the first addition is the excellent Woodland Scenics trees!  These are a higher price point than some of the trees you can find on eBay and such, but they are certainly top quality and look great.
