My only regret was not seeing a picture of the table itself; I'm always interested in how you translate your terrain cards into an actual miniatures wargaming table. I'm looking forward to the fights in Turn #2.<br /><br />V/R,<br />JackJust Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552962741823929433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174146262920547660.post-54286859454360817162020-03-30T09:10:13.566+11:002020-03-30T09:10:13.566+11:00Thank you.

I will be following the progress of this with interest.<br />I have just finished painting up both armies for a new collection/era and since our group can't play for who knows how long, might venture into a solo campaign.
