"I have several tubs of unpainted ECW lead sitting around…" Same here, and I don't need to hand over another portrait of Ulysses S. Grant for further inspiration. I have the original edition of "1644", and I have "WECW". I started with ECW back in the days of "strip" Minifigs and utterly unillustrated rules. I painted my regiments from uniform articles in "Military Modelling". Along the way, I picked up loads of reference material from Caliver Press. The last thing I need is a prtty picture book to show me the way. Like John, what I need are local players! If the kids these days, with all their Googling on the Internets, need a book full of photos of painted miniatures and a potted history to get them to play, maybe they're better off with Space Marines or pre-painted plastics, by cracky! Now where's my cane? Allen |

With 1644, you have a very enjoyable insight into the English Civil War, together with plenty of additional help and advice to enable either the experienced or novice player to get the maximum enjoyment from playing an interesting and challenging game devised by one of the best writers in the wargames industry, Rick Priestley.
