I've just driven back from t'other Partizan, where I enjoyed a jolly game with Dr Phil Hendry, Craig Davey, eldest son Harry and others. Hi to everyone else I met!
Partizan was splendid but the late nights preparing, two long drives, the 2AM karaoke in the bar beneath our hotel room and a 6:30 AM start, I am feeling somewhat ragged this evening. I'll post some photos of the game tomorrow (I singularly failed to take pics of any of the other games, some of which were very impressive), but I couldn't resist posting the above shot from behind the Vitellian lines.
A good day had by all. Did Phil tell you he thought I had it in the bag ;-)

In your dreams, Craig, in your dreams... ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt was funny how we started out with four or five players and ended with the two of us slogging it out!
Great pic...looking forward to more!
ReplyDeleteSo far it looks great! Looking forward to seeing the rest and those trees really worked out that you bought!

Thanks, I was really chuffed with the look that the trees gave the game. I think there must have been over 125 of them!
ReplyDeleteNow that is a lot! I'm going to buy some for my Pyrrhic campaigns, but doubt I'll need 125!

Hi Christopher, they were a mix of different types; cypresses, poplars, olive and generic deciduous trees.
ReplyDeleteI like having tree-lined roads, and it's surprising quite how many trees one needs for that.
I'll find out if I need so many as my our project progresses, but it does look really good!

The trees (and your vines) really make a difference from the usual generic countryside boards. can't wait for more pictures
