We've got a really useful release today with a load of MDF shapes for making roads and rivers, with straights, curves, junctions and more in widths from 20mm-75mm! And the best bit, you can get a full 6ft river or road for less than £5 if you want!

I've seen posts saying people block if they see someone following too many people, and others saying you're a scummer if you don't follow back. I just follow cool wargames and history people without counting, is that a faux pas?! Who knows!

My main interest is in #Napoleonics and I started with the Warlords Waterloo set a few years back. Very slowly building a force with a focus towards the French at present. All photos previously posted elsewhere.
