The eagle of the 62nd, taken by the British 44th at Salamanca, disappeared the night before a celebratory dinner - I think - in Apsley house. I like to think a band of ancient french veterans of the 62nd snuck in and pinched it back, interring it with the biody of their beloved colonel etc etc (yes i think there's a novel in there too).
Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.

 :) rather like the stone of scone

IIRC at the 200th of the Battle of Yorktown we gave back some or all of the captured colors.
(Except the one the officer wore around his waist under his clothes while he wa a prisoner for a considerable period on time.)
Encumbered by Idjits, we pressed on

Great idea!  Really like it and the 'rough ground' option could be added to any rule system.

What sizes bases are you using and where did you get the rough, rounded edge bases?  I really like the irregular look for casualties.

Great work!

I also like the TTS rules.

Hi Bunny,

Glad you like the idea, and TtS. The bases are actually from Simon Miller's BigRed Bat Shop, and come in packs of 6 for just under £2.50. These are ones for skirmish units, using. 10cm grid, so they are roughly 90-95mm wide and 30-35mm deep.  Hope that helps,

I've just placed an order a load of the 'standard' ones 90x40 as I will be basing my English Civil War on them for Pike and Shotte/Baroque.

The skirmish bases are a good size for the casualty markers....thanks
