Colonial New Zealand Wars demo for National Day of Commemoration

I am putting on a colonial New Zealand Wars demonstration game as a public event to help mark our National Day of Commemoration on Saturday 28 October.
Today I started gathering together the resources I’ll need for a game set in 1845/46, using Dan Mersey’s 'The Men Who Would Be Kings' colonial wargaming rules.
I'v posted about the forces, the terrain and the rules I plan to use here on my blog:

The display game took place today. I've just posted a report and pictures of the event on my blog:

Our daily paper also ran an article about the event, which you can read here:

Well done - definitely was a success in more ways than one.

I think the pictures were decent and sufficient to show the beauty of your minis and terrain setup.
Also, Mr. Hermans, in your daily newspaper said a few right things, every historical wargamer should agree.
Cheers!
