I agree 100% re Commands & Colors, they are the only rules that I have ever really fully got to grips with, so elegant in their apparent simplicity yet challenging to play. It's constantly in my mind to use them for this FIW project, but I can't work it out ...... yet!'Lee.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02728400013024811279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-23496532691454505302017-02-04T01:54:20.416-08:002017-02-04T01:54:20.416-08:00Thanks once again Dai for your kind comments.

The possibility of using the same set of rules for different periods (1700 - 1865) is tempting. I'm working through the dedicated 'Lardy' forum now and picking up a lot of tips, I plan to have a run through shortly. The idea is that the focus is on Command & Control, as with most Lardy sets, so other mechanisms are 'simplified', but they can be confusing!'Lee.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02728400013024811279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-34721633780376834452017-02-04T01:45:49.514-08:002017-02-04T01:45:49.514-08:00Thanks again Phil :)Thanks again Phil :)'Lee.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02728400013024811279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-59183754132583461342017-01-31T13:26:36.534-08:002017-01-31T13:26:36.534-08:00GMB make some of the best flags out there imo.

You paint their white/pearl coloured uniforms in a very believable fashion. <br /><br />I'm planning with a mate to try out Sharp Practice 2 in March with our 15mm ACW collections. I've read/heard more good than bad about the game, so am rather interested to see how it all plays compared to our staple ACW rules set (Regimental Fire & Fury).

Can't comment on sharp action, trying chosen men for napoleonic skirmish while we build our respective forces to black powder size, I like osprey games as even if they don't work out you've spent about the equivalent of 2pints of beer which I can cope with, oh and lovely ivy effect. <br />Best Iain caveadsum1471https://www.blogger.com/profile/02174163740406928172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-55129182069880691002017-01-29T03:00:33.105-08:002017-01-29T03:00:33.105-08:00I have so wanted to like the Too Fat Lardies offer...I have so wanted to like the Too Fat Lardies offerings, but have to say that every one I've tried I've found massive holes and confusion in, so I've now given up.. am I alone I wonder (or just old and grouchy) in also finding the slightly messianic nature of their fans a little overwhelming!? :o))Steve-the-Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077311120172727690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-85123511060415726982017-01-28T05:58:32.469-08:002017-01-28T05:58:32.469-08:00Splendid uniform and beautiful painting on these F...Splendid uniform and beautiful painting on these French troops...and great looking building!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913029478686087197noreply@blogger.com
