Might and Reason

My thanks to Colin Davidson for taking me through the 'Might and Reason ' rules today.  We had a great game. Prussian victory in the end.  Here are some pictures from the game.

Zorndorf daydreaming

Thought I would set out a new stretch goal for myself to achieve with the Seven Years War project.

I'm using a slightly modified orbat for the battle of Zorndorf scenario published in the 'Might and Reason' rules.

I will extend my games table to a 6 by 12 for this game.

Setting up the toys

 A couple of photos of the toys set up for a game and photo shoot.

The Medieval collection. Claymore Castings.

Seven years war set up for using the 'Might and Reason ' rules tomorrow. All Claymore Castings with Foundry Cavalry.

I had great fun setting up these tables today.  I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's game.

David 

1st game

 

Set up for the first SYW game this Wednesday.  Colin is taking me through the 'Might and Reason' rules.

 I will post images of the game.

Napoleonic Madness

Some various Napoleonic units that I have been working on. 

The Austrians and Prussians are Perry miniatures. The French are Warlord Games with Perry Miniatures command (a few head swaps here and there).

Just painting some units I fancy rather than stick to one nationality.

I will be doing dome Spanish next.

SYW Update

 A few photos showing how the SYW project is progressing.

Figures are Claymore Castings. 20 x 30man units.

The plan is to add Prussian artillery next.
