Hi all,

I'm trying to find a magazine article I read written about wargaming Napoleonics in 54mm. I ditched all of my magazines after leaving the hobby many years ago but I'd love to find this one again!

From what I can remember it was called something like "From Pig Shed to Glory" because the wargames club concerned stored their miniatures in an old pig shed. It was probably written somewhere around 2007-2009 in one of the major wargaming magazines.

I don't remember much else other than it being metal 54mm Napoleonics involved.

I've searched as many back catalogues as possible so I'm starting to wonder whether I'm experiencing some kind of Mandela effect…

Does anyone here have any recollection of this article?
