A little while ago we played a scenario that we've been wanting to do for a long time; the First Battle of Bull Run (using 10mm figures and Fire & Fury 2nd Edition rules). It was a very close-run thing and a great game! The full game-report is on the blog:

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this - lovely report.

Impressive table.

Awesome setup! :-*

Thanks all! :D
I must get some new rivers... What 25 years ago was the lovely transparent dark brown of a forest stream now looks like the outflow from a forgotten landfill-site.

Think spring run off, rivers often that color in some regions. However, TimeCast has a great river system where you 'paint your own' so you can get whatever color you want. Working on my own set - or will be after I get through the 250th anniversary game of Bunker Hill on workbench just now. See my LAF workbench thread here: https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=149209.msg1920756#msg1920756 (https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=149209.msg1920756#msg1920756). Pretty much every piece they make can be seen in the photos - if you look close enough.
Game looks great. Though only looked at the LAF thread - for now.

No, just think Thames Water. Now gift yourself a large bonus. :D
Lovely layout. Hard to believe those are 10mm figures.

Great looking game!
And for the next re-play don't forget to picnic like it's 1861.

Thanks for the recommendation. The lads at Timecast are mates, so that's a positive as well. :)
