All things considered I'd think this was a good thing :)

So it looks like every copy of that book bought is now owned by PD forum member?

Must be, Dave's got it on his shelf as well I think...

Waterloo, for the pure pageantry of it.

Though I could see some of the Lord of the Rings fights as mentioned in the OP, for the pageantry, as well as the fact my little boy would eat it up.

Agreed.

This is partly why I don't do Napoleonics; I'd want to do it "properly", by which I mean: to a ridiculous degree.
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Seeing 1745 written above has made me think Culloden.

The only battlefield that I have walked and possibly the only battle that I'd actually want to refight.

Yes, it's also featured in that book   ;D
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Actually funny thing happened to me while walking the site. I went up there thinking I'd be more interested in the Jacobite side of things, but once on the 'field' and seeing the line of red flags (both starting battle lines are marked out with large flags - blue for the Jacobite forces, red for the Government forces) I was 100% biased towards Cumberland and his troops. I just find it an odd circumstance, as my feelings did a complete 180 degree turn-around when I reached the site.

For me it would be the battle of Almansa.

The fact that the English were lead...

I'm sure they'd insist they were steel, at least.
