Oh, that's how Flickr works...

Nice report Chris 

Oh, interesting

I suppose It depends how big your pendraken orders are. Also can you Morph some of your armies into others bu additions of certain units or by changing standards?

My Dacian barbarian army is morphed into many other barbarian armies, by the addition of units like Chariots or slingers,more heavily armed men and the removal of Falxmen, changing of cavalry ratios etc. Mainly because I initially wanted to add an Ancient British army to my collection, and realised that the majority of the Dacians were incredibly similar to Celts/Gauls , particuarly as I had no intention of painting Checks on thier Trews opr cloaks. So I bought some Chariot Units, some slingers and some cavalry, a lot less expense, painting time and storage. 

A man with a spear and shield in Trews and shirt is much the same as any other from a few hundred years BC to a few hundred years AD. Yous I know the shields might be different shapes, the spears might be longer , shorter or heavier...... But does it really matter?
Your opponent might complain that he cannopt tell which unit has javlins and which has long Spears, but your case your opponent is liekly to be accepting. 

Britain doesn't even have to lose, just the proletariat follow the attempt in Russia.

A 2023 take on the T14

So are there and figures in the Pendraken line with caps close to a 1920s working man's cap, like these fellows here:

Britain loses war, revolution starts.  The POW camp in Amherst had Leon Trotsky and a contingent of German sailors  for extra spice.

Am I an addict? Possibly, but I don't think so. Am I a collector? Most definitely.

I am acutely conscious of my age: I am due to retire in 2 years, 9 months. That (for those who are counting) is only 33 Pendraken ordering days before austerity sets in.

This sharpens one's focus somewhat. In that time, I intend to purchase 6 small Napoleonic armies (500 figures), Napoleonic train, plus Amazons, ancient Indians and whatever SF appears. This is do-able, but can I afford the purchase space to add another 350 Spaniards?

Also, Pendraken are bound to throw something else that I didn't know I needed into the mix.       

Boer War: Diamond Hill (BBB).
Last set-piece battle of the war. Like all our Boer War games, great because of the asymmetry between the armies and because of the room for manoeuvre. This was a playtest of a second draft - the first draft had failed, so we were anxious to see if we had fixed its problems - happy to confirm we had, we got a classic nail-biter ending in a hard-fought draw.

Good point, well made.
