Hello

I have updated the Wargamorium Blog thewargamorium.wordpress.com
to include our latest game based on the giant cavalry clash at the battle of Ramillies in 1706.

This is the biggest amount of cavalry I have ever seen in action on a wargames table and the spectacle was quite impressive.

Figures are 15mm Roundway, Old Glory and some Eureka. Rules are house rules.

Lots of photographs to enjoy

Regards

That is very cool. I really love this era. Our group does GNW.

Thanks for the view!

Thanks mghFond

I have often been tempted to do GNW as well but feel my interest in this period is sufficiently covered by the WSS.

I do like to read about Peter the Great's army though.

Splendid spectacle Broglie! I'm liking Big Wigs too.

You can use Danes in both.

Thank you gentlemen for those kind comments which are very encouraging.

Nicely done, but marking the units detracts from the overall look.

mghFond22 Jul 2016 9:29 p.m. PST

I don't think so and it often helps the players identify which unit is what and where.

Broglie23 Jul 2016 2:41 a.m. PST

I agree that the bases look a little strange but they do make units easy to identify and to know which Brigade is which. It sure saves a lot of problems.

Nice looking game Robert! You and Michael (mghFond) would get along just fine!

Maybe we can all meet at Historicon one day.

Thanks Din

I did not realise mghFond was a friend of yours.

Historicon would be a dream but a rather long drive from here (6298 kilometres or 3908 miles)!!
