Thank you!

Wow, absolutely fantastic job!  And so useful for multiple periods and even settings -- Crusades, Napoleon in Egypt, various campaigns in India or even Kabul, Kandahar, etc. in my own favorite Afghanistan -- not to mention the potential for "Pulp" style games.  Thanks for posting, and I'm very much looking forward to the upcoming Battle Report involving such terrain!

Thank you for your kind words! When finishing the battle, I picked several fortified walls and buildings and I made a small Alamo-style (or Mexican or Colonial Spanish) fort! Useful for multiple periods, I agree!

The game was a Khartoum-style Sudan colonial game in 15mm. You please allow me time for tomorrow to post the thread, (scenario, AAR and pics) as for the moment I'm working on the photos we took during the game! A demain alors!  :)
By the way, here the time is 01:00 morning  :)

Thanks!
Miltiades is working before 2011 bit by bit to make this town, but the result is rewarding! Don't you think?
