Shame the massive doors got pinched and they had to use powder barrels! Not cool in a fire-fight!

Beautiful shots with the camera--which I presume did not go for a swim afterwards?!<br />I was surprised at the drawn outcome as I had the impression from parts 1–4 that the French were well and truly on top. Was it down to good old Sievers??!<br />Always nice to read a bit of philosophising too. The hobby has so many aspects to it, which individual proponents are able to engage in to a greater or lesser extent. Generally one cannot help but contrast this fun, safe pastime with good mates and the real thing that inspired it.<br />Keep 'em coming man!James Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559890140163645671.post-43914990839832649822014-06-30T17:11:57.197-07:002014-06-30T17:11:57.197-07:00Amazing battle report, it was a real labor of love...Amazing battle report, it was a real labor of love.

Well done that man!! Looks fantastic mate and is an inspirational series of posts on playing large games with stacks of toys and enjoying it all with your mates. Isnt that what it's all about? Great stuff!
