Have you ever put out a bad miniature???? I think not! You tempt me to paint new periods.

That was what got me started in this period -cracking figures, in this case lovely Piedmontese and then Austrians from a 15mm manufacturer whose name I forget - it was those silly goatees! lol. I played many a game using principles of war before I extended into the 1860's and 70's and games got too big. With these 28's I'll do more skirmish type games instead.

Love what you're doing and will be sending my special envoy and a pack camel to see you at Salute!

So is there a decent book to read (in English), which focuses on the military rather than the political background to the wars?

Apologies if I missed this back at the threads beginning?
