Unfortunately no edit feature on the comments. What rules for 7YW do you use. I play Maurice and Might and Reason. <br /><br />I am sorry if I sound like an idiot but at 52 the mind is not as sharp as it once was. What is ADLG?

Fun is the most important part of gaming :)<br /><br />@ Clint - cheers! My dice do seem to have been rather unlucky since I stood in for a clubmate at Campaign - and his dice seem to have been "hot" since then... ;)<br /><br />@ Michael A - thanks! I do seem to have been painting lots of cavalry over the last few months :)<br /><br />@ Miles - cheers! I do enjoy tourneys, even though I don't consider myself a tournament player. They're a great way of getting to play against (and meet) different players than your usual crowd :)<br /><br />@ Jerry - thanks! I didn't not enjoy my poor results as I was expecting them. I actually did like the fact that my army didn't get broken in any of the games, which was unusual for me! :)<br /><br />@ Francis - cheers! Cavalry should be done by the end f the weekend :)<br /><br />@ Peter - thanks! The hobby should be fun, even when you're losing :)<br />ps - nice work on your first 15s :)<br /><br />@ Dannoc - cheers! I can slow down if you want...jk :)<br /><br />@ Andrew - these are Seven Years War, not Napoleonics. I don't do Naps, so can't talk about rules for the period.<br />FoG and FoGR are still quite popular over here, but ADLG seems to be gaining converts from FoG and other ancients rules.TamsinPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11759947520907448060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-19025489083149996522016-06-08T22:34:28.422+01:002016-06-08T22:34:28.422+01:00What rules do you play for Napoleonics?

It never really caught on here but then again tournaments here for Organized ancients aren't organized at all except at 3 conventions a year.<br />Andrew Frankehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04847344542341681154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-57578732272498187742016-06-08T19:23:05.960+01:002016-06-08T19:23:05.960+01:00And I bet you'll have these 18 painted before ...And I bet you'll have these 18 painted before I finish off the the first 18 cavalry i started before your hassars were undercoated.
