BOLT ACTION AND NAPOLEONIC REINFORCEMENTS

I did not get to the SESWC last week as we were down in London visiting our daughter who has moved into a flat in Wimbledon. Having driven home yesterday I have now gone down with a bad cold and wont get to a game tonight either.

So this week I have added a review of the Bolt Action WWII rules from Warlord/Osprey as a page on the blog. This is a draft which I wrote for the review section of Angus Konstam’s Edinburgh Wargames page.

Once I can face the cold of my garage I will be working on retouching and rebasing 3 more regiments of Napoleonic cavalry which I have bought painted from South Africa on ebay. These will complete my 1812-14 French and Russian light cavalry commands.
Here is an update on some previously finished staff figures which I will use with my Napoleonic British army. I bought these nicely painted figures on ebay mounted on single bases and I have now rebased them in pairs as command vignettes. The 3mm thick MDF bases are from Warbases and the Silflor tufts were supplied by Mutineer Miniatures.
