I've made some research and I could possibly start such a project. Also with small range of miniatures :)
I'm waiting for Kickstarter to be avilable in Poland....

Now I'm gathering sources and searching for sculptors. I have some experience, as I work for Wargamer.pl, but I'm just executioner of others ideas.....working for your own project and managing it is quite different. But exciting :) I would have much clear vision no sooner than September.

I have to read more. I have experience with kickstarter only.

Interesting topic good luck with putting it all together, look forward to the finish
The Victorian Outpost

Its a new gaming place in Grimsby with new terrain and new scenery, lots of respect for all wargamers and is the best place to game in town.

Anybody who wishes to visit the venue to arrange a game then  just pm me and lets roll those dice.

Thanks Ged, it is nice to promote lesser known but equally important wars. It shows wargamers what is possible with a little determination.

Wow, very interesting
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
