Mitch, Let's give them a try at the next game. Columbus day is Monday, October 13th and I have to work. I have 150 Boxers, a train, dragon cannon and...
Bill mentioned he uses Artist's Pumice medium for his bases. Was able to find some in a local art supply store, but was wondering how to paint it to give it...
Mitch, I take a glop or two of the medium and put it in one of the dimples on the dimple cup. I then mix in a couple of drops of Ceramcoat Territorial Beige ...
Thanks. I'm not sure what a dimple cup is, but I think I can manage anyhow. Any brand of static grass that is better to use? I bought some of the yellow grass...
Mitch, A dimple cup is one of those plates in plastic or stainless steel with half a dozon dips in them that real artists use to mix paint. I think they cost...

Hi all, I'm new to the group. I'm looking for a fun but realistic set of rules for this period/level of game. What do most of you use? I have been looking at...
I've seen Rencounter, and Green Jackets, (downloaded them myself) but haven't used them. I thought Green Jackets looked the better as it seemed simpler. I...
Guys Last weekend I finished up a 2nd unit of Prussian Fusiliers and am now working on a unit of Jagers. I'm using Calpe figures - really wonderful little...
A few weeks ago we had a game with Ron Berry's Prussians against the French Old and Young Guard at Waterloo. Suffice it to say the Prussians lost, but not...
Wishing all members a very Happy New Years. I added a picture in the Photo section of some French Line Lancers I received for Xmas. Am hoping to get them into...
... THANKS Moderator, I've been re-doing ~ALL~ of my yahoo group subscriptions recently and since I've run a lot of 1-1 level Napoleonic Skirmish games I...
Hope you find something of worth here. The group has been very quite for a time. What rules have you used for Napoleonic Skirmish games. I'm always interested...
Hi Pete, Welcome aboard! It is a bit of a surprise to have such a distinguished and experienced member. We have been using The Sword and The Flame for our ...
In using the TSATF rules I've never been happy with the handling of wounded figures either from fire or melee. Perhaps in a Colonial game it made sense, but...
Mitch, I like this idea. I don't believe it will prolong the game or at least not by much. Are you planning on putting on any games at Enfilade this year? ...
This works well. It cleans the game up and gives a reason to have wounded figures now. Bill, what about the Pirates? ... least not ... this year? ... of ... ...
I've signed up to do a Boxer Rebellion game, but could be talked into another Nap Skirmish if you guys really wanted to. Probably nothing as epic as our last...
As the proud owner of 4 units (so far) of unblooded Prussians I'd like to see a "Northern Front" game. I'd even volunteer to co-ordinate the scenario and...
Gary, I would like to help with a Pirate game at Enfilade. What do you have in mind? How can I help? What game period are you planning on presenting the ...
I believe a "Northern Front" game would be a lot of fun and with new figures to boot! Eric, do you have a rough or even more polished scenario in mind? Bill. ...
Just a suggestion for a possible scenario for an Enfilade game. Gary, and I did this at one of or Sunday games. A messenger who must get to Sharpe is being...
Let's do the Napoleonic thing, that sounds better for now. ... Gary, ... to ... unit ... to ... rules ... take a ... there ... for ... of ... if ... French...
I am working on a unit of mounted and dismounted British 7th (Queen's Own) Light Dragoons, Hussars. I have one unit of British foot and one gun and crew. I...
Not for me. Since Dick moved away, I've been able to avoid getting involved in any new obscure periods. What's the news on Northern Front. Are we doing an...
Eric, The only 1812 games I have seen were put on by Doug Hamm and Kevin Smyth but they were at the battalion/regimental level using a variant of Fire and ...
My Prussian forces now total nearly 100 and while I'm anxious to see them on the table I'm going to have to retract my offer to organize a game at Enfilade. I...
