They seem less reliant on CGI and more inclined to use real or replica military vehicles when the need arises.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-33942251546249817042016-01-24T12:29:24.614+00:002016-01-24T12:29:24.614+00:00Archduke Piccolo,

I am currently working on a hexed map that represents four of my mini-campaign tables side-by-side. Once I have done my map and sorted out each side's forces, I will write a blog entry before I start the campaign.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-5822010779662657722016-01-24T12:07:43.435+00:002016-01-24T12:07:43.435+00:00It's a great film I've watched it twice no...It's a great film I've watched it twice now, your right some really good battles and the equipment is well done!Don Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230631364253238804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-64020229508354328692016-01-24T11:46:15.677+00:002016-01-24T11:46:15.677+00:00I recommend Robert Edwards (2006), 'White Deat...I recommend Robert Edwards (2006), 'White Death: Russia's War on Finland 1939-40' Phoenix, London. very good on the political machinations that were carried on whilst the battle raged.
