I was then persuaded - against my better judgement - to pass them on to another wargamer ... and I have regretted that decision ever since. Perhaps I will make some more one day ...<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-6268097940212864372016-07-19T16:31:58.968+01:002016-07-19T16:31:58.968+01:00Bob,

You're absolutely right about the stepped mountain profiles - I got the inspiration from the old Major Tremorden Rederring site, and provides a nice additional "vertical" playing surface. Perhaps there's an idea for your portable wargames ... increase playing area, without increasing horizontal table surface ;-)Phil Dutréhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607941040736764291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-50170811394479938472016-07-19T14:17:15.014+01:002016-07-19T14:17:15.014+01:00Jim Duncan,

My feeling was that the film is going to portray wargaming as something where lots of beautifully painted figures move across almost diorama standard terrain. Not quite what I do, but it does represent the more photogenic aspects of wargaming.<br /><br />I have been in contact with the film's makers to point out that there are things that their film doesn't seem to cover, but as yet they have not replied.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-13963324112034087552016-07-19T14:16:31.461+01:002016-07-19T14:16:31.461+01:00Legatus Hedlius,

There may have been some clues in the dialogue but there was a lot of mumbling.<br /><br />I hope the real thing has a more clear soundtrack and adequate subtitles.Jim Duncan Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14114076455087495681noreply@blogger.com
