A bit of filler
I meant to include the following picture, its the cover of CS Grant's Scenarios for Wargames and also the scenario just played.

ReplyDeleteGetting close to our 40th wargaming together
DeleteYour book is a veteran campaigner!
ReplyDeleteIt is and its traveled a fair bit a well.
DeleteVery moody looking photo, O.S. suits when the world was in black and white
ReplyDeleteTrue, in many ways!
DeleteGood stuff, I am going to pull out my copy, thank youf or the inspiration
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure!
DeleteYes! Great photo there - now were talking 1960's AIRFIX - great stuff! I've always thought 1/72nd is much better at Big Battles than 28mm.
ReplyDeleteIt all depends on your resources and energy I guess but 1/72 is a good scale for it.
DeleteWow! That 'Green Book' is a showing a lot of mileage!
ReplyDelete38 years of service!
DeleteIt is, after all, a great book, and worth returning to time after time.
