They ended up being published in an issue of WARGAMES ILLUSTRATED.<br /><br />Laurania and Maldacia are situated in that general area of the world (although you won't actually find them on the map) and harbour the sort of ill-feeling to one another that the Balkan countries seem to thrive on, so your idea is not too wide of the mark with regard to what I am doing. Orgefencer is following a similar path, as are one or two others.<br /><br />As you say, it is a fertile area for lots of small wars between countries with clashing ideologies and military philosophies.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-82237246035292878312010-05-05T19:37:19.100+01:002010-05-05T19:37:19.100+01:00Jim Wright,

I know none of it is interbellum-related, but I was thinking the Balkans might be an interesting model to use for an interbellum campaign: many small, incredibly hostile countries, with unusually large armed forces, using different military sustems and philosophies. <br /><br />Just a thought. (I don't get them very often, so I like to strike while the iron is hot.) :)<br /><br />Best regards,<br /><br />ChrisChris Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01820168773794240735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-12293450207331337842010-05-05T10:53:26.099+01:002010-05-05T10:53:26.099+01:00Hi Bob,

I await a battle report or two, so I can drool over your hexes. So nice.<br /><br />I have been busy getting my phalanx started. Yes. Back to Ancients, the period I most enjoy. Purged lots of stuff from my hobby closet. Felt good to clear the decks, so to speak.<br /><br />Keep up the good work.<br /><br />JimJim Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11549600020726569568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-67177104797423274522010-05-04T15:36:59.711+01:002010-05-04T15:36:59.711+01:00Ogrefencer,
