Hi everyone,
A small presentation of our 15mm Civil War miniatures, not often played in France…
Let's begin with the Confederates…

If you want to see more…

Hope you enjoy,
Thanks,
Phil.

Phil,

Nicely done. Why do you think ACW is not played often in France?

It is played a lot in this country.

Cheers,
Robert

Thanks Robert…Well, let's say I have not often seen playing in France, but may be I'm wrong…this could be a good talking point!
Anyway, a great period to play!
Cheers, Phil.

Nice work. I'd say come game with me but the Atlantic seems to be in the way.

Phil the french04 Sep 2013 9:11 a.m. PST

Merci beaucoup Frederick, très gentil de ta part,
Many thanks to you "vtsaogames", I would have accepted the invitation with pleasure, but it turns out that I crossed the Atlantic this summer to visit the American West, and I very rarely crosse it!

Phil the french04 Sep 2013 9:49 a.m. PST

All the best,
Phil.

Very nice work. Where are you in France? Always interested to hear about the Anglo-French alliance. Are those Essex figures?

Final Question: Is Josey Wales in one of those pictures?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your kind words, much appreciated!
Some answers…
- The first question is easy : we live near Lyon, east of France, the club is at 60km from Lyon, at Bourg en Bresse.
- The second one, not so easy! Figures are Minifigs, Essex, Old Glory and AB…For this post, they belong to Christopher, so just ask me if you want to know some figures especially, I will ask him!
- The last question…ouch! I will ask Christopher if he has painted Josey Wales, and if the answer is yes, he will be in the next "ACW post", for sure!
Thanks!
Cheers,
Phil.
