Well, he might tell my cousin.

Do you, perhaps, have an American cousin?

Hello Nick

G'day back at you from another Aussie.

Lots of fun to be had with WW1 Middle East, especially when you work out that you can use the troops for East Africa and Interwar dustups as well. Before you know it you'll be looking to add some Rugga Rugga, Afghan tribesmen, dastardly Russians and sundry other additions as well.  :D :D

Not to mention wondering where you can get a Bristol Bulldog fighter for air support  :D.

Have fun and don't feel bashful about asking for any help, the worst that can happen is you'll have to wipe the dribble off your sleeve from our less controlled members.

Cheers

And it's a good evening from me as well. WWI Middle East is one of my back burner projects, i.e. currently I have unopened packs of figures which are gradually being added to. Next show it will be Allied and Turkish artillery. Started gaming WWI again a couple of years back after a 40 year hiatus.

PS Do you know my Uncle Roy? He's about 85 and he lives in Grafton.

Ah yes, the wargamer's syndrome I have heard so much about... Hopefully my poverty is enough of an incentive to get me painting!

Unfortunately, I live about one Great Britain away from Grafton  ;D

Unless its FSN and you have mentioned Centurion Tanks then it might be substantially worse.
