I've now added a brief report – and some pictures- of the Lance and longbow demo game at last week's Salute show.

Simon your collection is stunning!

You are a true wargame master, in word and in deed. Tremendous production and a huge inspiration to me, and too many others I am sure.

I salute you.

Although I didn't go to the show this is the game that really shone in all the photo essays I've seen.

Fantastic based and presented armies. Love the guys crossing the river..very realistic.
The river itself is really well done. I know battle boards take up a lot of space..but it really looks good seeing cut in rivers like that.

Always a fan of Harness and Array. Great stuff. Who makes the dancing bear in the Salute I posting? Richard

War in 15mm:
The bear is a Wargames Foundry model – was lucky enough to purchase a couple as individual castings from Dave Thomas at a UK show last year – otherwise part of a costly pack.

Cheers

Simon, thank you. Love the collection! Richard

Simon, a couple more questions. Did you add the muzzle and collar to the bear? If so, did you use putty for that purpose? I believe I have the bear tucked away but didn't recognize it until you id it as coming from a Foundry pack. Richard

I admire the complete look with the camps, grave diggers and the artillery stockade. I want to add some of these details to my Burgundians and Swiss.

Can you help me?

As far as I can see, most of the figures are Perry Orleans with a few labourers and artillerymen from the Perry WOTR range. There are some men carrying boxes – are they conversions?

Where did the buildings and the tents come from?

Where did you get the small stuff – wheelbarrow, chests, barrels and jugs?

Thanks
Mick

I think this was once of the most impressive looking set ups at Salute. I thought the group fording the Yonne River was inspired

No changes done to the bear – he comes with collar and muzzle. Just a rope to the post.

That's great news. I'll dig through my Foundry packs and hope that he's the one I have. I looked up the pack picture of the one I have on the Foundry website and his size and "arm" positions are right in terms of your. But the Foundry picture is front-on so the muzzle detail isn't clear. Thanks so much for your help. Richard
