Splendid bit of bedtime reading, like the pre-game pics too.

Thanks James & Phil! The other 97 of you I can't see why you bother if you've nothing to say about what you see. I do despair of my fellows sometimes.

But you wouldn't want a thread with 97 "splendid looking picture" comments?

Besides, some of us may look twice.

What a splendid game!  ;D

I was wondering how this would look as, on a whim (a few times, as you do), I looked at the range.  Large groups of pikemen did not seem to have much of a survival time.

I am concerned for Jon, though?

Very cool game.
Great looking figures, lovely terrain.
This is a period I have some unpainted figures for and have wanted to do.
But I have way too many periods to paint up.
Thanks for letting me enjoy it by your posting of your game reports.

PS Love your Viet Nam game on your blog.
