As a newboy, I've been looking at some of your lovely photos and reading some of the posts re. "Sharp Practice" games. 25/28mm still seems to be the favourite...
The 40mm Portuguese Cacadore figures I drivelled on about in my first post are, of course, made by Flashing Blade, NOT First Legion - still they are rather...
I've added some photos of a small skirmish game we had using the Sharp Practice rules. (See Small Sharp Practice Game) in the Photo Section. This was our 1st...
Subject: SUVAROV --- Battle of Devil's Bridge, 1799. by ... ? A question I hope someone can help me with. Does ANYONE know the origin and name of the famous...
I just got a packet of Trident's new range of 40mm seamen. They are mainly wearing round hats, though I got one in a woollen hat. All are wearing square-cut...
Can anyone recommend a good base for my plastics? I am using Sharp Practice for my rules system so will be basing the troops individually. I was thinking...
Kurt, glad you found your way over from the NHMGS group. Why those guys want to spend so much time debating whether or not ENFILADE has gotten off track, beats...
Here's a photo showing all the 40mm figures I have painted to date. I'm looking at 'Song of Drums and Shakos' as my rules of choice for these figures. They...
There's an Ebay seller with 20mm plastic square bases with a thickness of 1..5mm. Once I've used up my old Epic stands I'm planning to buy some packs of these....
Hi Mitch, Thanks for the recommendation for Renaissance Ink. I do like the bevelled wood/magnetic stands. I've exchanged a few e-mails with Richard at Too...

I've uploaded a scenario for the Sharp Practice rules set by TooFatLardies. I've used the same format as they use in their "The Compleat Fondler" scenario...
A series of Sharp Practice After Action Reports. They start with our first small games and go to our latest ones which are quite big production values. They've...
These were great scenarios. I enjoyed reading them. I especially likes the Alternate Random Events rule from the Hawkesworthe's Mules scenario which I have...
The random event rules have been working a treat. Not only do they give players who are not active a decision to make (ie, do I play the card on this movement...
I'm designing a one-off game using 28mm which is for 4-5 French couriers in the peninsula racing to get a message through enemy lines. If at least one message...
This shouldn't be that hard. Just imagine what could happen from good to worst. Anything can have a good and a bad side. I'll get you started on Adventure at a...
Thanks Mitch, for the tips. I used a few. We played the game today with 5 couriers making a dash for glory. Follow the link for an After Action Report with...
How is this for enthusiasm for a set of rules I haven't even played yet?! I've set up a new forum (with the blessing of Richard Clarke) to support the Too Fat...
The Sharp Practice forum is only a few days old, but already has 75 users and over 90 postings, covering a wide range of topics relating specifically to the SP...

Ladies and Gentlemen, I just entered your yahoo group. I am interested in playing napoleonic skirmish games and I come from different wargaming areas. I played...
There isn't much activity in this group but questions that you have could likely be answered. Have you got a system in mind? My thoughts about getting into...
I'd second that Sharpes Practice suggestion, and also point out Flintloque fantasy Napoleonics, since you have some fantasy gaming in your background. The...
Thank You for the replies, I will go probably with a rule modification of LOTOW and try my hand in skirmish and see how it will develop from there. I always...
Welcome to the Group Birger. I hope you find it helpful. I've seen the Victrix figures. A group of players from Bellevue area net at the Game Matrix store for...
... Actually I found assembling them isn't the worst of it -- getting them off the sprues without snapping off the bayonets is the tricky part.. If you use...
