I agree !

"The terrain is all by Homebase - the hills and villages are the "luxury" £5 carpet tiles, reduced to £2.50 and the sea and streams are the sadly out of production Oxford Blue self adhesive vinyl tiles."

It looks good !   :-bd

Nice scenario and good looking game. Well done to Homebase on the scenery front. I keep looking out for suitable blue tiles for rivers, but no luck so far... :(

Notice you have three crew on that Russian gun. When I got my Russian and Japanese gun packs I found I had three guns, six crew figures and two limbers - a very peculiar mixture.

I've looked high and low for these tiles but they are sadly oop. I've written to Homebase several times to find out who their supplier is but they won't answer me >:(

I have one pack left that I am using to extend the stream, river and coastal sections I already have

It's a while since I bought my RJW artillery. I certainly don't recall any limbers in the packs

In fact I bought extra gunners for the Fairy Kikaku guns

I use my FPW French Limber teams for the Japanese and WW1 Russian Limbers
