Oh that it should come to this

Work on the French dragoons is progressing, slowly, but progressing.

 
Slowly but...,


It struck me today that all this planning and plotting and casting and...... 

Well, let's just say that it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't played a game recently. More than a week I thought, and started flipping through blog posts.....Dec 31, 2022!!  ???   Oops!  January MIGHT have been the only month with no game since the blog was launched in 2010!

I won't bore you with all the distractions, duties, road blocks etc on top of the casting,  painting, conversions, and rules editing, nor make excuses about needing to prepare for  Huzzah! in Maine in May. 

Friday, the table WILL be cleared and reset, ready for battle. But what to play?

    1. You may indeed suggest it. Might be a few weeks before I'm ready to shift focus though.

  8. Time Travel required to set it right - exploiting a local anomaly in the laws of physics etc. etc.
    In a parallel Universe you did play a game of the Month in January 2023 etc (been watching too much Sci Fi - Disney Parallels, Netflix Dark, The Time Machine, 70s Dr Who etc …)

  9. I would argue that although there was no dice throwing… you were still playing with toy soldiers. 😁
    All the best. Aly

    1. Oh, it's been a good couple of weeks hobbywise, lots of converting and painting and planning, just poking fun at myself and the blog title.
