After so long time without occupying with my hobby, this winter came and made a change to this dormancy.. just prepared some regiments, gluing broken helmets, guns or bases and we met for our first winter game. It was the only sunny day in February here and we immediately went to the garden to build the tabletop, placed the former and the buildings, trees and hedgerows.
Topic was to prove the game rules which we had discussed just before.
But once you have placed your army, you are in this war-gaming fever and we fought a nice battle between Prussian army and the Russian invaders.
