But you have out done yourself. a series of enjoyable games and a final conclusion game. You did the entire battle but made each phase interesting and exciting.<br /><br /> Outstanding terrain and great looking figures. My hat is off to you and now I have to try out something like it myself.<br /><br />Well done!Old Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10414321650267966787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-51853342822373430362021-08-05T17:47:01.059+01:002021-08-05T17:47:01.059+01:00Inspiring as always, Matt!
