Austrian cuirassiers are plunging and rearing impatiently. Two units of Hungarians await my attention, while my wife is doing the last Germans. The end is no longer unthinkably distant.

Oh cripes! and I've just got out my 1509-ish Papal army in 28mm to give it  a look at as a not very distant future project. Could be several months before they go up against the Milanese.

Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.

So having spent so many months on painting the little chaps, how many minutes will you spend on getting the terrain correct?

FierceKitty

I've had the terrain for ages; I'm converting to 10mm from 6mm, which is the scale all right-thinking gamers use with 10mm figures anyway, not that I'm pointing fingers at anyone, Ithoriel.

My day off again; I think there's a good chance I'll finish the Austrians today.

Well done that man. I will also get a clear run at stuff this afternoon.

If you lot want your troops brawling over doll's houses that's entirely your affair. I prefer figures and buildings in scale, where possible. If 24 figures are a battalion, one house is a village or small town.

Is it true that one country is now the EU, according to UK opinion?

Oh please don't get me started. Nobody, including the leading politicians, appears to know what is going on. The referendum seems to have been the result of a massive protest coupled with a swathe of misinformation, disinformation and just plain ignorance. If you elect politicians to represent your interests then let them get on with it. Don't put major decisions into the hands of a semi-literate populous.

If that's the case in the UK, where education and awareness standards are relatively high, most of the world is in real trouble.

Indeed it is - grow a beard or we'll cut your head off, as commanded by an invisible man in the sky.

All real men have beards anyway. :)
