Thanks for posting the pics of a very colorful game. Guess I'm going to have to rush over to Michael's for some trees!
I wonder if I have to blame any of you guys for getting me into miniatures, since I first tried wargaming with miniatures in Sacramento in the early 1990's. Back then miniatures were played in an upstairs room over a smokey bingo hall. Tried SYW with 15mm using Volley Fire, WW2 skirmish with 28mm, Apaches vs. US cavalry using 28mm, and ACW ironclads. I still have a few 15mm SYW that I bought in Sacramento then, along with a copy of Volley Fire rules. Looks like the miniature wargame scene is still strong there.
