Good read and a great introduction to the period for the intinerant wargamer.<br /><br />Passing over Varna and the Black Sea on the return trip seems to be some sort of wargaming kismet. <br /><br />Northstar 28s look OK and at least they are pushing out what appears to be a full range. Warlord arent really trying and simply toying with the period, whilst Foundry are a bit limited right now.<br /><br />Will keep on my radar though.<br /><br />Cheers<br />MarkMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835446049246785287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690131777600341387.post-74207314558878516962012-03-23T22:46:34.505+00:002012-03-23T22:46:34.505+00:00Hopefully we will have some progress on the Freiko...Hopefully we will have some progress on the Freikorp stuff in the next day or so. The idea is to run this project in tandem with the Crimea. When painting large units like the Russians it's always good to have a wee project that you can just dip in and out of. Sort of breaks up the monotony.<br />I would have started the Freikorp tonight but am drinking Red wine and salsa dancing with the wife in the kitchen instead.majormikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703834774905918397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690131777600341387.post-55692441167459276772012-03-23T17:40:01.348+00:002012-03-23T17:40:01.348+00:00I'll look forward to seeing what you do with t...I'll look forward to seeing what you do with the Freikorps project.
