At Last
Born and raised in the suburbs of Montreal 7 decades ago. Began playing with toy soldiers at 5 years. Started painting & converting at about 12 yrs and wargaming about 15 yrs. Never really stopped.
5 years in the Black Watch of Canada Cadets, 5 years at the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean followed by 4 in the navy. 25 years with CPC in IT simultaneous with 23 years running a boarding kennel. Inherited my love of toy soldiers from my mother's father. Married with a pack of litle Italian Greyhounds and a cat. Prematurely retired and enjoying leisure to game, maintaining our 170 yr old farmhouse and just living.

Looks interesting. Seeing your FRW armies reminds me of the remote game you hosted at Huzzah during COVID.
ReplyDeleteSeems like a long time ago. I have yet to upgrade my equipment to make it a better experience all around.
DeleteLooking forward to it. The simple wooden block defences are very effective indeed

Mostly dowels and the corner supports from the old wooden crates of Mandarin oranges. Now the crates are replaced by cardboard or plastic nets but I hoarded a big box of the corners while they were common.
DeleteI recall those boxes. I must see if they are still about…

I forgot to mention that many of my troops used to be based on the wooden sides and even used the holey bottoms as a tray for moving troops from shelf to table. ( Ahhh for the good old days.... )
