Busy Busy Busy

Well its been a couple of busy weeks, not only at home but at work hence the lack of updates.

Well it's almost NAPCON 2009, and still a lot to do. Organised all of the guys (well hopefully) still a little bit of planning to go into the 15mm Naps games.

As for the tree's I have had a lot of fun doing these, and have turned out well. I produced around 30 to start with and Craig is busy basing these up ready for the weekend.

Terrain on the 6mm Table is going to be a little limited, but as time progresses this will grow.

The main thing is we need to start gaming with the figures now. Should be looking at running the game on a 4ft x 4ft table to start with, and should have around 12-14 French Infantry, 4 Cavalry, 6-8 guns vs 12-14 Austrian Infantry, 2 Cavalry and 4-8 guns.

Got my hands on the new Companion book from Baccus, very nice book. Also managed to pick up a cheap copy of Sam Mustafa's OOP Grande Armee.

I will be posting photos from NAPCON after the event, will break it over several days. These should be online around the 15th September. I will make sure that I get some decent lit photos of the French and Austrians as well.

Here's what we have at the event this year

15mm Napoleonics (Main group)
28mm Napoleonics (2 groups)
Napoleonic Ships
6mm Napoleonics (wait thats us)

Also will have to post a photo tuturial for the tree's at some point.

Well best get back to working out the finer points of the weekend
