My Blog is six years old today! Here is my latest post on some gaming aids I made for Feudal Patrol games.

Very nice. I really like the idea of the menu boards and will steal, err borrow, that concept. One recommendation I'd make is to color the Underbase ID stickers something that will blend better on the table. A light green or tan, perhaps.

I like the American flag guy.

Fantastic stuff. The most organized of anyone I have ever seen, including me who is always making charts and base. I have a number of armies that will benefit from quite a few of your ideas. Thanks for posting!

It has been my experience, at least in skirmish games, that the figures with the finest paint jobs are the first to fall. That box of lead you have is a massacre in the making.
Save your self, at least have some primer showing.

Yup there are some good ideas there. Thank you for sharing your OCD.

Wow,what a project for game aides. Nice ideas.

Thanks to all for the feedback! I do appreciate it and I will respond to each of you below.

Rich Bliss – thank you – the color suggestion you have is apt. Most of the ones that I made (I made 35 sets) are more natural or subdued in color. My thought is that presbyopia (nearsightedness) comes for us all – so its a fine line between being visible enough and being hard to see. Hopefully I found that line.

79th PA – thanks and you're not the first to think that it's an American flag design – that preceded ours by 275 or more years! See here: link

Bognar – I appreciate the compliments. I would be thrilled if any of my ideas helped you with future projects!

CAPTAIN BEEFHEART – yes, but they all cannot fall right? And btw, I see that you are in Hartford, CT. We game with the Mass Pikemen which is close to you (one town north of Sturbridge, MA in East Brookfield, MA). When the world gets back to normal, maybe you can join us!

dmebust – thanks – now I can tell my wife that I have a diagnosis for my hobby!

takeda333 – glad you found it interesting!

Mark, I guess that's just more proof of time travel and that the Ancient Aliens guy is right!

79th PA you could be right!
