By close of play the French dominate the crossroads but the Allies have plenty in reserve. French cavalry are in the Allied flank. Similar to the historic Quatre Bras. Black Powder and thanks to Veterans Hub for good game.

Played BelloLudi rules at the club tonight with Wofun flats in 15mm. I really liked the rules- ideal for a club night. Wofun flats were something new for me but looked good and made for a nice looking game. I played Confederates and got soundly thrashed - as it should be.

Been a while since I painted something small, so back to Epic Pike and Shotte for Phillip Skippon’s Regiment of Foot!

Today is #RLSDay which marks the birthday of the Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson who would have been 175 today.
It's also a good day to remember that it is NOT actually his birthday because in 1891 he gave it away to a young girl because she didn't like her birthday. 🧵

A Sunday read - the 3rd battle in our Rückzug campaign for Chain of Command!
The Germans have things under control so far but the British have paused to get a new platoon to the front and have extra resources. Will it be enough for breakthrough?

*visible sweating* Gad damn what a game! @leeparnell.bsky.social and I locked horns in an absolute slug fest. Right down to the wire. The very last roll of the die of my Cheiftains not getting back into the assault was absolutely incredible.

Cracking first outing for the Berlin Brigade!

#OTD in 1944, Breda was liberated by Polish 1 Armoured Division, led by Stanisław Maczek. (Maczek was after the war stripped of Polish citizenship by the communists; he's buried in Breda.) #WW2 #HISTORY

Discussion at the club of starting up Warmaster has led to me testing out this Talabheim scheme.

Really enjoyed painting these, and hope the talk turns into games. I always wanted to play Warmaster first time round, but never had the chance - thank god for fan resurrections!
