After the holiday hiatus we're back on the road. The Union forces have moved, concentrating in towns of Luray, Newmarket and Brandywine.

Start of turn 2.

The eagle eyed viewers will notice that detachments have been deployed in Front Royal and Rose River.

Plus the fickle hand of fate has determined that the Union move first this turn.

Turn 1 Union move.

The Union have concentrated their forces in Page Valley, leaving a strong force in New Market and a small force to protect their left flank in Sperryville.

The force in Moorfield has marched down the west of  South Fork Mountain to Bushy Run.

Turn 1. Confederate Move

The Rebs have moved from Staunton to HarrisonBurg, Buffalo Gap to West Augusta, and have concentrated at Conrad Store with a force moving from Ruckersville to Rose River.

Shenandoah Campaign.

Time for some continuity in our gaming at the club.

The campaign is using the Columbia Game Shenadoah block game as the mechanics for the campaign but we'll be fighting the battles with my 10mm ACW figures.

Commands will be allocated soon to the 6 generals but their identities will be kept secret from each other until the campaign progresses.

I'll publish battle reports when there is table top action but to wet one's appetite here is a map with the starting positions.

Classical Greeks

It's been a while since I've posted anything but I've been a busy lad. Four armies painted.

Here are a few pictures of my FoG Greek army for BayFog. This is a 900 point competition with no superior or elite troops allowed in the army.

Change of plan

The army lists have been changed for the May FoG competition and the Later Hungarians are not on them. : 0

So I've decided to go with Dominate Romans. I've always fancied a Roman army and the later Romans have such a variation in shield patterns so its an obvious choice. Plus the army is very tasty too. The figures from Legio Heroica arrive this morning and are splendid so watch this space.
