While I got ToW primarily for one theatre and one war, I keep wandering off to other PK modules in my thinking. Hard to concentrate on just one place and time...
Back from Historicon and a great game of FoB with Pat & Chris. I feel inclined to point out first that I don't, as a general rule, normally play games at...
Pat, We spoke at Historicon about your painting method (which, by the way, gives great results). I understand the method/technique, but what brand and colour...
Dave, Thanks for the compliments. It is minwax polyshades, tudor satin. Again, do not stir/shake much. I normally shake it 3 or 4 times, keeping the stain...
Rob or Jim, What was that brand of pipe tobacco we had? I would like to get some asap ! Patrick Velas [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Brent, how close are you to finishing these ? I would like to give them a try. I just started up my 25mm WWII figs this week, and I should have enough done...
Wow those figures were dipped? My dipped figure always looked much "dirtier", Did u happen to do your dry brushing AFTER or BEFORE the dip? Very nice looking...
Pat, Those figures were some of the best painted armies I'd ever seen; so consistent, so detailed. So high the bar now,(sigh.) Just kidding...superb game;...
I'd like to echo the thanks to Chris and Pat Velas. I had the opportunity to play in both Pat's Napoleonics game and Chris' Isandlwana game. Each game...
Oh, any drybrushing we do is before the polyshade. Patrick ... From: "Milton Soong" <milton.soong@...> Wow those figures were dipped? My dipped figure...
Milton, I prime with a flat white. Then stain paint (a thinned out standard paint) the main areas, such as flesh, uniform, backpacks, shoes/boots/gaiters,...
Thanks for the tip. For me actually do the dip, and then shake off the excess. I can imaging that might leave more on the figure than your method (then again I...
hi there, i have the HG and master rules on the way (thanks to Allan at lancs games), and would like to know how many figs per side i am looking at for a...
Hi Greg, The standard would be 3 infantry figures per base, 2 cav per base and 1 artillery piece per base. Now depending on what you want to do you can change...
Hi Greg, ... Piquet is optimized for armies of 12 to 20 units. The most common unit basing is 3 stands of 3 infantry figs, 3 stands of 2 cavalry figs, two...
Just to give a brief update on this to the group, we're about to play the second battle in this campaign tonight. So far so good, the multi- player aspect is...
thanks for the replies, gives a good idea of what i am aiming at, although its a lot less than i was thinking!!! i suppose it depends on how you base, for...
Hi Greg, ... Not a problem at all. :) ... A cynic (nicht uns!) might suggest the basing conventions for Piquet reflect the fact that the designers tend to play...
Hi Tom, ... I count off-board artillery as units. As for air/naval support, I've written some special rules (and cards) for TOW. They are posted here at the...
Larry, I do have some up on displaced miniatures: http://www.displacedminiatures.com/Patrick766/galleries.html These pics are not the greatest, the site...
Pat, Those figures look fantastic. All of them have been painted with your stain method? I will have to try it out on my next batch of figures. Victor ... ...
Milton, the primary concern with using the polyshades is mixing it too well. If I shake it a few times and it looks like it is too dark, I let it settle for a...
Greg - You might like to know my organization for Piquet, not so you should follow my example --After all, I may be crazy! I use four trays of 8 figures each...
Excellent. Just what I was looking for. In regards naval gunfire support, using my Megiddo campaign, early engagements near the Mediterranean coast could have...

Andy, it was Karl Erik Private blend #16. Fantastic aroma & taste. I found it online for $10.50 a tin (about 1.5 ounces). Patrick ... From: Andy Cowell...
... Seconded! Plus, I got to play in their Isandlwana twice, and it really was a high point of the convention. I will point out that I was on the winning...
