Saturday, June 25, 2016. This is the first major update of the rules since they were written in 2011. The rules have been used on our wargames table on most days since they were first written.

When the rules were written my wife and I were running a solo 1813 campaign. For example each campaign day was 12 hours long.

Jan and Paul in Spain 2015. Friday, 29 May 2015. This is a lovely walk, as well as being our regular start and end of season walk. The first part is a nice level walk along the beach. However this is followed by a steep climb, without the benefit of a path or track. And watch the locals at play. We also played a knock out footb.
