Hmmm, all I need to see are more shots of the Perry plastics.

Tho there are a few others that look great; couldn't care less about the era, but that mesoamerican looking display looks keen as heck.

Thanks man.

Am I doing something wrong?

There's something odd happens sometimes with navigation away from TMP – perhaps 'cos the addresses are quite long. Try cutting and pasting the http:/ addesses direct onto your web-address window:

Does it work any better?

What are the wheat fields in the ACW photos made from? They look rather swell.

Cacadores24 Apr 2008 11:21 a.m. PST

Plesure. I should say various paople took the photos, including one or two from matakishi.

''What are the wheat fields in the ACW photos made from? They look rather swell''.
Wheat sort of breaks and bends if you tread on it, and has green leaves so I suppose it's meant to be dried grass.

Could be 'teddy-bear fur' which apparently you can get in dress-makers. Poor teddy-bears, I say.

Those are great pics CacCa, I don't know what was up with my camera, did you use a tripod?

You actually caught a couple of smaller games that I missed.

Court Jester24 Apr 2008 1:31 p.m. PST

The wheat fields in the Perry game were door mats cut up into Unit sized sections (allowing the units to be placed in amongst the wheat).
