This featured some innovative use of figures etc., that Ion had to hand. These included:

• Figures from the SHOGUN board game.
• Mounted Samurai figures manufactured by 'Zvezda' that had been given a black undercoat, white drybrush and red details.
• Souvenir cannons from the Tower of London.

This battle was fought out on a 24 x 14 squared grid, which Gary states 'allowed some manoeuvre, and to some extent did away with ’edge of the world’ syndrome'.
