This week we tried one of the scenarios from the excellent 'Let's Fight Leipzig!' book by Steve Shann. Tony wasnt able to make it sadly so we replaced the Russians with Austrians and played a 15mm The Battle of Probstheida using Warlord's Black Powder rules.

Lion Rampant is such a fun 'simple' game. This was a 36 point game between my Normans in Sicily army and Andy's lovely Teutonics. We were playing the Bloodbath scenario which is basically a no holds bared death match!

49 points aside plus supports saw the French forces trying to break past a Prussian force to capture the Prussian deployment point in a Napoleonic Sharp Practice game at Farnborough Wargaming Society. It was always going to be a tall order for the French, and that was before Jonathan got an unexpected bout of aggression right at the beginning - normal service will return in future I am sure|

After comparing Essex Miniatures with Epic Pike&Shotte from Warlord Games, a couple of people suggested that Steel Fist Miniatures worked well. I know their work in 28mm but wasnt so familar with 15mm to picked up a few packs to take a look. They were not wrong they do fit perfectly and are awesome sculps to boot....

A pickup game of 15mm Napoleonics at the Farnborough Wargaming Society using Warlord's Black Powder rules. Basically a Swedish and Prussian force of two brigades each of 4 battalions, plus a cavalry brigade each, vs a French force of 4 infantry brigades and two of cavalry. It wasnt even close!

As i continue to paint my way through the Epic Pike & Shotte Push of Pikes box set I started to realise I didnt have enough cavalry and especially cuirassiers and cossacks. So I bought some 15mm from Essex Miniatures, a very old manufacturer, to compare.

Once again I got to play with Tony and Paul's lovely Colonial 28mm figures for a game at the club of Black Powder in the Indian Mutiny using some rules from Wargames Soldiers and Strategy magazine. Very fun it was too.

Ken from the PCP dropped by and we had a cracking game of Black Powder using French and Russian Napoleonics. A great game but certainly not a tutorial so if you are triggered by rule mistakes, don't watch!

I am no modeller, but that's why I really like the 15mm Battlefront kits for Flames of War as they are simple but yet effective models for the tabletop. I had a box of German WW2 Panzer 3s so I thought I'd show you how easy they are to assemble and how I paint them up.

Friday night game at Farnborough Wargaming Society playing 15mm American Civil War using the excellent Pickett's Charge rules. We played a refight of the Battle of Groveton, 28 August 1862 which although the result was somewhat historically correct was pretty tough on the Union player - me!

OK so I am not a modeller, lets get that out there... but i did struggle with this Semovente assault gun from Warlord Games. .It's going to form part of my new project... an Italian WW2 force for Bolt Action and maybe Konflikt.

Back to the club for a game of Hail Caesar War of the Roses using 7th Sons adaptions. We hadnt had time to work out a scenario so we just picked 5 units each and randomised who was with who to play a scenario from the book - meeting engagement.

So it was recently brought to my attention that I am a very very bad man.... you see i like to play historical wargaming and I have a tendency to enjoy playing WW2 games with Germans. I never realised how bad I was for doing that and so I am giving up historicals and instead taking something safe like the megalomania and world domination of 40k.....

Time to get some figures on the table and try out some adaptions to Hail Caesar 2 for my first Bruces in Ireland battle! I roughly divided the forces I have painted and just went at it... and damn it was fun!
Careful what you read and watch.... I was drawn into another new project watching a history video about a war I was pretty much unfamiliar with... the invasion of Ireland by Robert Bruce and his brother Edward after their success at Bannockburn against the English.

Alec - from youtube.com/@wargameshobby - challenged me to a game of Lion Rampant 32 points a side against his lovely new Byzantine army. It gave me the perfect chance to break out my Normans in Sicily for a historically correct scrap. A fun game, if only I'd paid attention to the mission.....

Feel free to post that unit which sadly needs some love but has cut swathes through your opponents so often you just can't bring yourself to do it. Or that monster which looks more like a 60s Doctor Who monster than a true demonic presence but it never lets you down....
