I heard that this book is a very good one (I never read it). We have some plans (my Club in Hamburg) to start a Napoleonic project next year (1813 – 1815 Befreiungskriege). So, maybe I come back to your recommendation…Thank you!

...and another LPL contribution…the heroes form „Last of the Mohicans”:

Just a quick question Frank, how are you hiding your bases? It doesn't look like loose material. Is it 'photo-shopped' or does your terrain have cut outs for your models to fit in?

Sometimes I use loose material but most of the time the effect is made with Photoshop.

Cheater!  Just kidding.  I use Photoshop...how do you do it?  I'd be interested to hear the steps you take, if you have a chance...
