An AAR of a campaign game played last week:

Once again, I read this as Florida, which in the winter is always under assault by the British!
As always a very good looking and cleanly designed table top.
Incidentally, blogspot continues to reject my google credentials or I would post at Wargaming Addict as well.

@d_Guy, I always leave my comments here rather than the Blog - much easier for me to do that. I see what you mean about the names, although we are considering renaming the village to 'Dubya' in honour of the latest defence of the 'W' franchise.

Bill, sorry you can't reply on my Blog :(. I too initially read it as Florida and was going to cheekily rename it thus, but decided otherwise :D. I'm glad you liked the aesthetic of our games :).

There's probably a street named 'Dubya' in Floridia now ;). The Divisione Napoli will never live it down that they allowed American pizzas into Sicily! Hawaiian pizzas, oh the shame...

Does anyone know of a good pineapple dealer? I'm looking to do a few deliveries to Southern Italy  :D

Steve, enjoyed .... doubly (sp?) as I start to explore the rules and am appreciating more aspects of the AAR.
