GREEKS VS GALATIANS....

A game that pitted my Hellenistic Greek army against the Ross' rampaging Galatians. Paul was siding with Ross and the ever insightful Chris gave me the benefit of his sage advice and quick wit.

The Band of Wargame Brothers

What started out as a group of 2-3 mates playing games once a week now has the makings of a platoon! To all the boys who regularly make the long trek to the far North West Frontier this blog is for you!
And although we number few,
let us not lament all those who sit abed on the nights when titanic battles rage,
and we would not have one of those who wish not to push tin figures across a miniature landscape-
for the glory is ours,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall remember the poor dice throwing and the ridicule;
We few, we happy few, we band of wargame brothers;
For he that battles with me (and reads my blog)
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
These days shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed that they are not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon these days.
(With apologies to Henry V and William Shakespeare!)
