My main goal at the moment is to reduce options and variations until I can finish the work already in hand.<br /><br />As for the AC, my new plan is to dodge the sellers of mint in box ones and to try and find a dealer with an opened, used, even slightly damaged one that I can repaint in dark green.Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839601747923375105.post-2413881981317589912015-12-08T16:07:58.476-04:002015-12-08T16:07:58.476-04:00Exciting times ahead again?

If you are doing colonials, you could ...Dear Ross,<br /><br />If you are doing colonials, you could simply create a section of Oerburg that sits in the far north with native people who are unlike the folks with whom you have waged play-war in the past. Uniforms did vary a lot - cavalry could wear colored uniforms as could Gurkha types (dark green). Even the troops of local princely types could wear different variations of brown and greens and dark blues. What a great project! Just as a BTW, if you can get the Rolls Royce AC, you might want to spend the money since they seem to be getting more expensive every year.<br />Best regards,<br />jerryCelticCurmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687177512999052331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839601747923375105.post-3840528397872661352015-12-08T11:03:18.581-04:002015-12-08T11:03:18.581-04:00Ross Mac,
