Qwirz, War Monkey and Grumpy Gnome, thank you.

Major Shelley's unit is now up to 50% strength. They are joined by Lady Constance Snoring-Cabstanleigh. Lady Constance is a sapper by trade and is seen here holding her copy of De Tractatu Magicarum Linguarum by Dr. Martin Pale.

I probably don't need to tell the very informed readers here, but the De Tractatu Magicarum Linguarum is a work which treats of the various languages used in magic, including the Sidhe tongue. Dr. Pale concluded the latter was connected with the ancient Celtic languages of the British Isles.

Lady Constance is from the very nice people at Black Pyramid Gaming (with the hand-swap from original shako to a book).

I must definitely concur, the names of your characters are as splendid as the paint jobs you bestow upon them. Thanks for sharing.
We haul ours to kick theirs.

War Monkey, diehard and Gun bunny, firstly many thanks for your kind comments.

HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH THE NAMES

Gun bunny, a lifetime's devotion to the works of P. G. Wodehouse helps!

The S.T.A.M.P. (Silver-bayonet Troop At Much-Piddling) are now up to 5/8ths strength. Major Shelley has now recruited an old naval friend of hers, Ronnie Toastrack, or more properly 1st Lieutenant Veronica Toastrack, of the Gloucestershire Toastracks. Ronnie will be the unit's Sailor.

"Ronnie, my lass, you stole my ship, you sailed to England and left us with barely some clothes to wear on that abandoned island only to join those other lassies? Now look at us, weren't we enough of a woman to make you stay and hang around with us? Hanging you around is what we have in mind now, traitor! Say your prayers..."

She is great! There is nothing wrong with having a sailor in the group, even better if she has her own ship!

My plan for TSB is to have a ship with crew and the shore party will make up the Team. I can rotate lesser characters in out and have a "Pool" to draw from when characters get killed off. I will have my team officer for Shore Party affairs and a ship's Captain for action on the seas.

I hope this gives you some ideas to play on.
