Thanks Shawn.

Yes, its lots of bases nearly 80 for a division - I have just popped an order in with Leon for several bags of 30x30. I'm a bit away from needing to base tanks yet, so will get a few games in before then, and decide whether to go with slightly longer to fit the tanks, or bigger square bases.

Where is Dorman? Not heard of it before (nor found it on google). The Marne battle sounds good, might have to pencil it into my Summer plans

Yes sorry Dormans is correct. It was the pivot point where the BEF and French started to push back the Germans in 1914 to unhinge the line and cause the race to the sea. It is the spot where the French have their major monument to the battle of the Marne.

Ah, OK, that explains why I didn't recognise the place name, its in France.

Just watched the history channel the Martian War 1913 - 1917,  how easy would it be to add in Martian tripods into great war spearhead?

Well they need to be some sort of tank I presume just a matter of giving them some stats

Don't be silly, "The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one ...."

Is there a "singing out of tune" icon??

Coat please!

Lol that would be some battle. Martians and massed Wwi armies. I watched a bit myself. Interesting sci fi option.
