Tercio de Barón de Gramont; el ejército español de Flandes 1642-48 A new period for the blog, but not really a new project- just a newly-unveiled one. The Thirty Year's War has long been one of those pet interests of mine. But for some reas…
Yearly update! I haven't been blogging for ages- way too much time spent at the computer already what with teleworking most days of the month. But gaming life has been relatively good as things slowly return to some kind of normal (or at le…
Great looking game and figures again, Robert. I saw the recent BP supplement news release. Great stuff with a lot of important engagements - that said, I have only French & British troops now. Thanks - enjoyed. I hope the new Black Powder s…
Really great stuff, Robert. Great looking figures and I agree about using Black Powder for not just games with massive amounts of figures. Very inspiring. Lovely to see your game and it is particularly nice to see the larger figure on the s…

Nice conversion, he's going to look rather nice with a lick of paint!! I see that your affection to colpacks remains undiminished! Great job on converting this guy! Looking forward to seeing him painted! HiA very imposing figure. Surely his…
Great to see your armies coming together Robert. I had no idea Calpe were doing French? I thought the plastics had swamped the market with French (or are the uniforms of the plastic figures around made for earlier than 1813?). The redoubt i…
Looking good Robert, The Redoubt has taken shape nicely. Hi RobertI like your redoubt very much. Do you think to make trenches in front?RegardsRafa The redoubt does look good. As an aside it must be quite interesting getting about in Japan.…
Hi Robert - sounds like you had a great Cherry Blossom day! Down here in the southern hemisphere its the most beautiful (Autumn) weather too. Almost too nice to be indoors painting too much - almost! I've voted on your poll but should expla…
