Finding Hobbytime ain't easy!
What little 'me' time I have had has allowed me to do a bit more re-basing back onto the washers and to take a closer look at the pros and cons of several organizations and ideas that I've been contemplating including what impact each option might have on what extra figures would be needed and whether or not they would work on my smaller table.

| The Blues Brigade. The Black Hats deployed as a heavy skirmish line with supports in line and the 2nd Infantry in march column. |
The urge to go back to a MacDuff or Charge! style organizations with several Companies making a Battalion or Regiment has once again been squashed as that would work best if the rules were made a bit more complicated than I want, the games would tend to be longer, and would benefit from having table made bigger again. Instead, I will stick with my also traditional 12 man regiments with the ability to throw out skirmishers.
Every bit counts! Things will get easier in August and rules and armies need to be ready for a fullscale outside trial by combat!

ReplyDeleteNa, these guys don't follow, you always gotta push 'em.
ReplyDeleteVery good looking figures you have there Ross. Hope things are not to hot there in Canada. Cheers. KEV.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kev, so far, we've been having near perfect weather including just enough rain. Can't last!
DeleteAre the hexes in use here? It looks like the units are fitting into hexes but not sure if that's just a coincidence.
ReplyDeleteI'm working towards using them for measuring but yes the units are larger than one hex. I've been wrestling with handling small linear warfare with medium to big figures on a hex grid for a decade now!
