Ah... of course there is a dark side to war, any war... but I distinctly said gaming.  :)

In any case, having read some of Lorca's poetry it is possible that his killer was just a critic. ;)

Yes Arlequín, I cannot read Spanish so I cannot judge poetry. I just reacted about... modern feelings.

But about gaming, yes - I could play any side (and still think about what they have done).  :)

I can't give you a set date, but certainly not before and 'probably' more like the first week of the New Year... maybe. But they are coming.

I'm pretty sure La Legión are very much towards the front though, from what I recall of the conversation. Besides being one of the 'first to fight', the learning curve between the basic 'Army' lists in the special and them (as well as the Moroccans) is slight. 'I imagine' that the Republic's militia are first out though, so that gaming can commence.

Regardless the gap between lists will probably be measured in weeks, if not days, Mr Lard's workload not withstanding, once they are delivered to him that is. We've grudgingly allowed him a day or so for Christmas too.

Awesome! So far feedback has been positive, except on my use of Spanish.   ;)

It is a strange language, no problem reading and understanding it, the trouble seems to start when I try to use it myself. lol

Also learnt about CoC Spanish Civil War supplement. Already downloaded all PDFs published so far --and likely going to purchase CoC basic ruleset too. I guess these rules can also be used with 20mm miniatures?

You can play CoC with anything and given the ground scale, 20mm should actually look better than 28mm, with 15mm being pretty much perfect.

I hope so anyway, as I'm very tempted to do it in 20mm myself... I hear someone is making some.  ;)

Gents, Chain of Command works really well in 20mm and without any need for conversion or modification.
Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing
