Many thanks once again gentlefolk.

Our Longstreet campaign started on Saturday the 18th! My opponent Stewart (Commander of the Northern force) hosted two games. We spent some time re-learning the rules to an extent, but otherwise, the games each ran splendidly.

The first AAR is posted at my blog here - http://lostdamnedstunted.blogspot.com/2016/06/longstreet-campaign-1861.html


*Apologies for not posting it here, it would take a flippin age to transfer all the post's contents over from blogger!*

I'll post a link for the AAR describing the 2nd game soon!

Very nicely painted.
I thought the top pics were 28mm and I had to go back to check the scale.  ;)
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

Thanks a lot Melnibonean!

Not any more painting done due to real life rearing it's ugly head. But a 2nd game AAR has been written and posted on my blog and I am to play the 3rd game in our Longstreet campaign tomorrow evening and plan to do the AAR for that therafter.

Game 3 AAR posted up!

http://lostdamnedstunted.blogspot.com/2016/07/longstreet-campaign-mid-1862-game-3.html

Will be mainly painting 28mm WW2 for a while now (As I have an extensive Winter Soviet force I'm slowly working through.), but there'll be some more 15mm Confederates in the future as my army has grown and more cavalry models are needed!

Troublemaker!   Now you've inspired me to get going on my own 15 mm ACW again - and 96 short of 960 bases down, I'm ready to start rebasing the infantry and then move on from there.  The short 96 bases are for the casualty figures, one for each regiment.  Those are one to a base, everything else three to a base but each infantry regiment's command base is one mounted figure on a horse and one soldier on foot.  See what you are responsible for?!  Trouble maker. ::)
