With Ruspina to SELWG!

The annual SELWG show (Crystal Palace on Sunday week) is now just ten days away and I'll be putting on a rather grand game of To the Strongest!

Ruspina is one of Caesar's less well known battles, but one of my favourites because the great man came within a whisker of defeat. It is also an asymmetrical battle, with legionaries matched against masses of light troops. Here are some shots of the game as run earlier this year at the Wargames Holiday Centre; I hope to have a couple more units finished by Sunday week. All photos are clickable!


There will be Romans, Caesar and baggage...


...there will be elephants... savage Germans and proud Pompeians....


...and probably more Numidians than you will ever have seen on a gaming table!


If you are coming and want to play or help or both, please mail me or post in comments!
