It was good getting 3 of the other club players involved too. <br /><br />CraigCraig Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14592543210821530318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4837051353071347442.post-53190645052970787822012-09-27T23:39:19.317+12:002012-09-27T23:39:19.317+12:00Good sized table for the scale of action.

Not something I generally go for, but then, I'm a control freak.

Ideally I need to get another 2 battalions done so we can have 12 infantry battalions aside.<br /><br />We are going to try a meeting engagement in a couple of weeks once Kent is back from holiday- we will divide our armies up into vanguard/main body and rearguard and they will randomly arrive on table.
