Family 'stuff' prevented the artillery being finished Paul :D

No explanations required, just remembered your earlier comment which had ended up on the previous page and couldn't resist ;)

My Dacians scream every time I unpack them. Five defeats for one victory, poor chaps.

PAH ! ;)....

I know it's not war-gaming....but every (very early) morning I try and kick my brain into gear by...

1)......Doing the daily 'minesweeper' challenges from Microsoft.....Far too easy, now...YAWN...(:| (:| (:|

2).....Then I take on the PC at card games for half an hour. One game I play, should give me a one in four chance of winning.....And I've been totally thrashing the program for the past two/three years.

Suddenly it seems to be being a complete bar-steward......Over the past few weeks I'm down to a win once in a dozen times.
I know I play dirty......which is probably the reason I win so often......But the PC is playing dirty now.....I've barely won a single game recently !

Cheers - Phil ;) ;D ;D ;D ;D

Flocked a load of bases tonight so they can be used in a planned game in a day or two.

Dacians finally finished highlights. Flesh and steel on and inked, thankfully. Been a bit of a busy week.

Are you now playing it for money?

Just a theory.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
