First:
Huzzah for our next 54mm Sudan...Hi Jim,<br />---<br />First: <br />Huzzah for our next 54mm Sudan game. I am so very looking forward to it. Firket is a great choice. Winston's The River War arrived today from the library again. I read it a few years ago. Anyway, pages 129-137 explain circumstances from Churchill's point of view which we in the USA so admire. His style is appealing and cogent.<br />---<br />Second: <br />I am going to add 12-15 brand new 54mm Egyptian Lancers as soon as I finish six more 28mm Pathans to bother General Pettygree. These are almost done. Back to the Lancers: They come from Armies In Plastic, INC. in Wapingers Falls, NY. www.armiesinplastic.com Remember, I have a cloud of their Hadendowahs painted for our last game. One thing I do though is cut off spears/lances and replace them with wire. Otherwise, oh dear!<br />---<br />Third:<br />Your remarks about low volume of blog remarks is spot on and shared by me. It is a disincentive to write and create.<br />---<br />Fourth:<br />Switch to Facebook?! I belong to a Colonial chat group originally with several thousand members. Its gone to Facebook to chat. Group emails are nearly zero/skeletal. I get the move to Facebook but gamers are you really sure you want to kill off blogs? I don't think so. <br />---<br />Respectfully,<br />Bill P.<br />Chronicler for The Adventures of General PettygreeGalliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12258909398832285314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-33942652687419351692019-08-28T14:21:17.606-05:002019-08-28T14:21:17.606-05:00I have gunboat envy!

Some have speculated a move to Facebook, which seems logical. For my humble efforts I'm lucky to get 2-3 regular contributors, despite 80 odd followers. No idea but I'm happy that at least my efforts inspire a few fellow gamers.Steve J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12143308117853983963noreply@blogger.com
