Fantastic talk at the National Army Museum today on the Assam regiment in the Burma campaign. Charlotte Carty shone a spotlight on this important unit & the unheralded contribution it made to the crucial 1944 battles. A genuine delight to be there & learn so much.

Played Fate of the Fellowship tonight with @roundwoodsworld.bsky.social and Pip. Enjoyed it a lot. Lots more chrome than the Fall of Rome version and really looking forward to playing it again.

Hungarian rolling stock for my 1944-45 Hungary games of Chain of Command and IABSM. I put on games last year involving a railway yard, and now I am in a position to put carriages & trucks on the tabletop. Looking forward to playing these games.

1812 Retreat From Moscow - Devilry Foot.
Terrain piece finished - кровавые деревья - the Blood Trees.
Many who wander into the woods end up here. All the characters from my own spinoff from Devilry afoot will have to be very wary of what lurks in the forest.

The Russian & French will face dangers as they try to survive the forests of Mother Russia & all the evil that lurks within.
Will be working with @perbroden.bsky.social to create the characters & supporting bits to play a campaign.

Cracking day out with @sprandell.bsky.social
visiting the Devil’s Dyke followed by a pub lunch. The Saxon defence was more impressive than we both expected and certainly had us struggling to envisage how it was built. Inspiration for Dux Britanniarum. #shedowar #wargames #wargaming #spreadthelard
