Following my plans for 2013, posted yesterday, here are my resolutions:-
I shall complete, play test and publish (probably on-line) the
Ancients rule set I’ve been developing
I shall finish my Ptolemaic phalanx for the game at Partizan;
ten units of 48 phalangites, one of 48 agema and peltasts, and 3 dozen Cretan
archers. At the time of writing I do not
have a single, complete unit, although I have around 120 figures painted. To achieve this, within the timescale, I recognise that I will
need to get a couple of hundred part-painted for me... and also the cavalry and nellies
I’ll buy the parts and paint the cloth for a deeper wargames
table, probably 160cm (4’8””), which is about the widest table that my lounge can
take, whilst simultaneously accommodating half a dozen gamers with expanding waistlines
Finally, I’ll improve on my woeful record of local gaming,
and get some decent games under my belt, at least one every other week
Plenty to be doing, especially the Ptolemaics!

Good luck with that list Simon, especially the mega-phalanx!
Not sure if I'll do gaming resolutions for next year, or just come up with a list of stuff that I'd like to do.
Enjoying the blog as always!
Cheers

Happy New Year !
