Yeah, that's planned. I'm just wondering where my wishes will take me after Korea 1950?

From recent posts, I'm quite taken with a 1941 Russian army - so that would mean T35's. Perhaps a Meerkat army from the Battle of Great Fearfulness.  Then again, I'm still lacking a Byzantine army, and some Myceneans in Dendra army. Oh no! British Napoleonics - they're worth a good whinge.

Not that I don't have enough on my proposed purchase list: Ancients, 1944 Western Front, and I'm still toying with some early WWI and perhaps even some ECW.

So may options, so many Pendraken dreams to make reality.

The way I look at it, fsn, is that if the Good Fairy were to plonk them all down, fully painted and based, in front of you, you would be bored with them within six months. I probably would. So it's just nice to savour the anticipation. And to know there's yet another period around the corner.....  :)

So true.

Unfortunately for me, I've been reading up about Centurions and all then other conflicts they've been engaged in. Suez '56 is looking good, Golan heights '73 - but then I'd need ....  well you follow me.

Don't appologise its been very entertaininge taking the mickey out of FSN, who by the way has taken it all on the chin.   We will need somethign to carry on with once his lusting for Centurions has been sated

Filthy boys!

Without Chinese in Mao caps, the whole thing could be off. No point in setting myself up with Korean war Centurions without something to fight them.

Byzantines now. I've got Saxon, Viking and Norman armies waiting to paint. Fancy a bit of a Norman v Byzantine in Sicily. Any plans for Byzantines, Pendraken gnomes?

See, I told you it would be a temporary infatuation.

But maybe you could try and go with Australians in 'Nam?
