The inappropriately named #ECWtravelogue is setting off in search of the Marquis of Montrose. So it's only appropriate we listen to this: youtu.be/v5zav2yrC7M?...

So, late on Sunday I decided that my heavy limbers needed to be distinguishable from my medium limbers by having a 3rd pair of horses. Ordered that night. Now sat on my desk, cleaned up and base coated. New bases arrive tomorrow.

Thank you Museum Miniatures and Warbases.

The epitaph of Naseby is usually overlooked by most commentaries: The Farndon Massacre should not be forgotten, and surely there should be a memorial in the likely location? #Naseby #EnglishCivilWar #Warsof3Kingdoms #BritishCivilWars www.keepyourpowderdry.co.uk/2024/05/the-...

BCW regimental wiki update.

User registration is now working properly, but unfortunately we've been hit by the spammers today.

Everything has been cleaned up, and the site is back to normal, but as a result user sign up has had to be modified. 1/2

In a break from reading books, and researching ECWtravelogue trips, I done some painting. #15mm #Wars3Kingdoms #EnglishCivilWar #BritishCivilWars Assault Parties (take 3) www.keepyourpowderdry.co.uk/2025/06/assa...

More BCW Project news! The Regimental Wiki is mostly back online (still sorting a few formatting issues). Link from front page needs amending (a job for another day).

In the meantime you can find it at wiki.BCW-project.org.uk

It's back!

At the moment the Project part of the site is back up and running, a few bits have been turned off for now (you can't donate to the running of the site, or contact us yet). The Wiki might take a bit longer I'm afraid.
