Post by: Unlucky General on 17 February 2024, 07:46:26 PM: Many thanks ETS. I really enjoyed reading the after action report. I hope you post the re-fight also.

You've inspired me to kick my project closer to the curb this year and at least finish my Rebel army. My progress has been glacial.

When I get to the UK a visit to 'the shed' is a must.
