I'm about 1/3 the way through painting up the figures needed to re-fight Minden later this year. I'm using Might & Reason and 15mm figures but even so I reckon it's about 670 foot, 146 Horse and 20 gun models. Anyone else similarly bonkers

I think you might be a tad late. |

Not me. I do seem to planning a 64th Anniversary game of Operation Blockbuster though

Good idea – something that I will have to consider for this year. |

Hey, what's a century or two between friends? |

Well I'm using it as a device to get my club into SYW and M&R. There are a string of 250th anniversaries over the next few years and I quite fancy doing one each summer. |

There is also the 250th anniversary of Kunersdorf in 2009 for those who don't think that Frederick was so great. |

Well, as Brit I have a bit more affinity to Minden ;-) That and the fact that one of my mates is serving with the 5th Rifles who still celebrate Minden Day – most of the squaddies have a large 'Minden' tattoo as well
