Christmas unwrapped !

Sat in the dining room feeling full and although I have had to work some of the day the benefit of older kids means I have a bit of time to look at my goodies.

Pride of place goes to the Perry battle in a box ACW. Now I wasn't planning this as a new venture Santa knows I have enough already but I have put in a lot of hours running up to Christmas and needed a mental diversion, I saw this on offer on eBay at a very reasonable £82 and was hooked.

Together with this I got an excellent ww1 figure to make a war memorial for VBCW etc. a couple of good books and a lovely series of Crimean warrants from my son which he picked up in a second hand shop. Oh and a Sarissa Manor House.


Now the ACW is going to require a bit of planning so I might make the Manor house first.


A scary amount of grey plastic ?

  2. Lovely pressies. I painted up 2 brigades during last year's challenge. They were nice to paint. Do the firepower rules look good

    1. Not sure about the rules yet only just managed to peek in the box really. Work has been somewhat traumatic over Christmas, hopefully it will settle down soon ?
