Don't want to start a separate thread, so a quick question on 'Rebels and Patriots'. Just gleaned the rules, which I'm told can be tweaked, for Pony Wars games? Some time ago, I'm sure I read an article with 24 point units, 7th. Cavalry and a Cheyenne War Party. Can't find 'em on the Internet, can anyone send up a smoke signal, please?
 ???

The Men Who Would be Kings rules (in the same rules stable as R&R) have 24 point lists for US cavalry and indians. Is that what you are thinking of? Wouldn't these rules be better for Pony Wars?

There's a superb set of adaptations for Plains Wars using TMWWBK on the rules' Facebook fan page... Rules as written aren't quite right but with these, it looks much better (I've not got enough models to actually try them out so am going off other folks' reports). if you don't do FB ping me a message...

Work has commenced on the newly gleaned collection, just a bit of tickling up, to be fair. The Wagons are rolling, and Septimus M Barme, has taken on a new assistant. For a stipend the bereaved can now have an handsome Daguerreotype, of their dear departed!

The Medicine is good! Thousands of Buffalo have been spotted. An advert is posted to gather more energetic assistants to join the hunt!

Love the buffalo herd!   Now, the white buffalo - while a nice model to have - is another thing.  Ever since I made the mistake of watching that horrifically bad movie with an even worse 'fake' white buffalo, in all senses, I just am put off by them. 

Oh, and a proper wagon train.  Will we be seeing some Indians circling the wagons soon?  Or perhaps the cavalry circling the wagons while the drunk Indians hide behind the white women?  lol

Charles Bronson? I quite like that film...
