Impressive collection of figures. Interesting idea for the game I'll need to spend more time with this.

Fantastic blog! And project. I've just finished Sjöström's Fraustadt book (hard to come by) and it was great.

Thanks Gunfreak, it was actually that book that inspired me to put on my first GNW battle in 6mm a few years back. Here is a picture of it.
