Rob Heath has just done a magnificent 2mm Gettysburg game. I'm taking the liberty of posting a link here to his report on Facebook:

Thank you, no. I'm monitored enough without joining Facebook.

Well indeed, me too! But for those who want it, it's there.

Pretty cool. No Facebook for me either.

Interesting looking game, Would like to see more but also not willing to go to Facebook just for this.

Strange,

I do not see Barlow's knoll, Culp's Hill nor Devil's Den.

Not a criticism, but if you are going to refight a historical battle in such a small scale on such a large map, why not just blowup a map from a board game and play on that? If you do not want to do that ($$$, unsightly hexes etc) use a board game map as your reference and transfer the terrain features from the boardgames map to your miniatures map.

Again, not a criticism so please don't take it as such. It is just an observation.

One day me and Rob will play on that table in Exmouth … :-)
