Beautiful - I have fond memories of the Alamo game put on by Greg Blake at Cancon.

But, the defenders outside the walls? Crazy.

Excellent Ged.
That's a lot of lead.
Did you paint that lot yourself?

Gringo,

   I am thinking of doing San Jacinto in 40mm. Wasn't there a difference between the uniforms the Mexican Army wore in during the Texas Revolution versus what they wore during the Mexican American war? Are you going to do more Texians?

ACW gamer the main difference is the shako...cylindrical in 1846-48
Napoleonic bell shape 1810 style in 1836..........
focusing on 28mm at the moment...but never say never ;) :D
