Good to see you deeply engrossed in your Zulus yesterday Chris. |

Cheers, Mac! Engrossed? You could say that. The Isandlwana game at Colours went down a storm, lots of people interested and keen to join in, it was great. "Wargamers, sir – fahsands of 'em!" |

Wow, great looking game! I'm either doing this in 20mm or 28mm. I own figs for both scales. It's the question of painting! thanks John |

Go for it, John! Matt's scenario is freely available in the BBB group files:
groups.io/g/bloodybigbattles
Look in the 1701-1714 folder, subfolder "Matt's Malburian Modifications".
And a bunch of his other WSS scenarios too. |

I've recently uploaded an update to Malplaquet to the BBB group based on some of Chris's suggestions as well! |
