Nice looking ECW figs, Simon. For the record, I'm hosting a couple of Marston Moor games at our big annual con, Enfilade, next month. Using Pike & Shotte, with 8 players each game. It's a lovely period to game.
Some great looking finishing touches there, Simon. 👍 Is the horseman on the chestnut bay, firing his pistol, Atkyns? Ready to take on Haselrig himself I expect 😀.
Simon, at least you're doing Wargames stuff! Everything looks great, and I look forward to fighting with toy soldiers again this year. Meanwhile I'm gearing up to paint more Carthaginians and Etruscans...

[Image]I'm conscious that I've not posted on this blog for almost a month- it can get that way when I'm busy in the lead-up to a display game (in this case Partizan). Above and below, I've been making command stands, pursuit markers, casualty markers and artillery pieces for the Roundway Down game. This has been going pretty well, with the first three categories close to completion, and only the artillery needing very much work. I should have them finished with plenty of time, which is good news, since I still need to build a darned great hill. When they are completely finished, I'll take some decent photos. [Image] In other news, I'm working on the next release of Even Stronger, which will include some new troop types and streamlined rules, due out at the month end- it'll have been a whole year since the last version! I'm also editing ancient army lists for the month end release and a book. Busy, busy busy!

Lovely additions. Such visual markers are a boon to any game; certainly beats chits or units being followed about by a dice in a box!
