" Peter Gilder was well known for his terrain and love of Napoleonic refights. In Miniature Wargames Four he was to provide details of his most ambitious refight… The Battle of Leipzig…" Main page link Part II link Amicalement Armand

Nice find. I remember that article well, especially the comment that all the players placed their personality figures in a certain town or building after Gilder told them that the structure could not be fired at. LOL.

Great memories !! I liked Peter a great deal and his son Chris also. The last time I saw Peter was at the Penn Harris. He,Dave Allsop and I enjoyed nice meal and an evening chatting about many thing --not just wargaming. Russ Dunaway

Fond memories of refighting Leipzig at Peter's Wargame Holiday Centre just outside Scarborough.

You have to be a certain age to remember the outfits, the hairstyles and facial fungus in the B&W photo. One thing I always do notice is just how skinny all of that age were, back then. Nostalgia is not what it used to be, but this is great.
