All the best. Aly

I completely understand about time, work and life getting in the way!  Honestly - I was being to think that the GWM crew and the Scarab crew had come to some sort of "gentlemens' agreement" in regard to late war French.

Let me hunt down some of the pics that best illustrate the German colors I'm wondering about and I'll PM you.  It might be a few days though - "time, work and life" as usual.

They have certainly "saved" a lot of fine art from the chateau, though I suspect some of those paintings are copies  :)

Copies!!! :o

Sir ...you are mistaken...
As everyone should know Da Vinci painted (at least ) two Mona Lisa's
One...In the morning called Mona Lisa
One...in the afternoon..After a bottle or two of Chianti called Mona with a Moustache...

Its all true ...you can trust me ...I am an artist.... lol

GWM LW French would be nice but the Gripping Beast LW French really are top notch  :)

All absolutely wonderful!
Funnily enough I just stumbled across some old pics of your game at the Carlton-le-Willows show in 1995 in an old copy of WI (on the hunt for Afghan army reference, but that's another story). I'd forgotten you've both been doing these amazing WW1 games for so long.
