Hello World

After many years' absence I returned to tabletop wargaming a couple of years ago, attending the same club as I did long ago (although not in the same place) and playing with some of the same people.  My major project in that time has been adapting and testing a set of grand tactical Napoleonic rules, and that account can be found here.  Recently my old schoolmate and wargaming companion Angus has re-joined also.  Angus is heavily into the American Civil War, and also happens to live not far from where we used to play as boys in the local club.  He also has a very fine dedicated wargaming room, with a permanent table surrounded by his collection of figurines, terrain pieces and historical prints.

Angus was kind enough to invite me for a game at his home, and asked me afterward to write it up as I have done for Throne & Altar games elsewhere.  I was glad to accept the invitation, and hope that this game will be only the first of many.  Indeed, we are already planning a campaign.  The resulting report, I thought, therefore deserves its own dedicated space, rather than just a guest spot at T&A.

Enjoy!
