Title: Christening the wargames room
Post by: Leman on 08 February 2016, 08:17:43 PM
Last week I christened the new wargames room with a 10mm SYW battle using Honours of War. The Prussians had to take an Austrian occupied ridge, which in due course they did. Just a couple of shots. Full report on www.honoursofwar.com

Didn't the gun carriages turn yellow after the SYW?

Yes! Yes! Yes!   :-bd

Disappointed not to meet you at York, Leman. The counters in the photos - are these loss markers and are they easily acquired or do you need to order especially?

If this is any help, when I was purchasing mdf counters from Warbases at York I noticed a LOT of new game counters available for all manner of uses. I don't know if they're on their website yet, but they might be worth checking when they are.

Figures in Comfort also sell a variety of plastic counters, and also offer a custom design system for plastic counters.

Westmarcher, the loss counters are the standard ones made by Warbases. They are also very useful in other rules such as Impetus and Black Powder. The general rating counters were made for me by Warbases using the Vivaldi font. The angle measures are part of Warbases standard stock.

You can all see a photo of my wargames room/outbuilding, if you like? It used to house an 8'x4' table, but now hold two freezers, a working sink and lots of timber and plants. You can't swing a cat in it nowadays, let alone roll some dice in anger!  :D
