Title: Hello from Bavaria
Post by: J.S. on 08 November 2011, 06:41:21 PM
Hello everyone,

the smaller the better.. after some unfruitful attempts at 28mm i finally got my hands on 10mm miniatures, which must be the perfect scale for wargaming.
And well..here i am  ;)
At the moment I'm working on my 1809 Austrians, Sassanid Persians and (as soon as pendraken ship my latest order) AWI with a focus on the German foces involved. Future plans (hopefully) comprise the French Revolutionary Wars and LoA (go Pendraken  :D).

regards,
J.

Well that's true, but people tend to take that for granted. I spent several weeks in Vietnam last year and realized that people there felt quite indifferent towards the beauty surrounding them (eg at Halong Bay). Back at home I noticed that I'm actually no better  #-o

Welcome to the forum - lots of folk with plenty of good tips to pick up re. 10mm gaming. I too like Bavaria having holidayed there a number of times over the last 40 years.

Griàs di, Kadett! Joa, Haumdaucha sin mià schon mit unserm 10mm, oba gschaite Haumdaucha.

Bavaria is beautiful indeed. So is Halong Bay. I had the pleasure of crusing the bay on a type of junk some ten years ago. The area is beautiful beyond description and life is so simple once you're on a boat. In the afternoon we would anchor near one of the islands and dive for crabs, which were then grilled and served with Tiger beer. Mmm, memories...

Anyway, welcome to the club.

Cheers,
Aart
