Hello

A friend and I took some time to play ( not very easy this year  :'( )
We used Honours of War, and had a great time.

My french advancing to the village :

Severe fights :

But, guess what ?
I lost... as usual... ! :'(  :'(  :'(

Excellent, Ronan. Glad to read that it was good fun even though you lost! What I also like is how our great hobby is enjoyed throughout the world regardless of language and frontiers (as your post so amply demonstrates). Thanks for posting.   :-bd

Well Ronan, that looked an absolute cracker. I particularly liked the look of the French cavalry. I really ought to start building a French army so that I can use it in the WAS as well as the SYW.

Great looking figures Ronan! The buildings were also quite spiffy - who manufactured them?

Very nice Ronan.

Continuing to paint my SYW 10mm is going up my priority list but they won't be as good as yours 🙁

Kind regards

Edward

Nice looking table and figures I especially liked the stone buildings, who made them.

Take care
