AMMUNITION MARKERS
Designed on an Excel Spread...---<br />AMMUNITION MARKERS<br />Designed on an Excel Spreadsheet to include six big Os for round shot/ball and two rectangles for canister. A heavy black border surrounds the marker. Print on colored paper of your choice, use stick glue (a wax of some kind) and adhere to scrap pieces of wood at least 3/32" high so you can easily grab them. Use a pencil and mark off the rounds fired. Erase after a game.<br />---<br />TERRAIN CLOTH<br />Placing boards or whatevers under the cloth enhances natural-looking rises and undulations in the ground. <br />---<br />INDIVIDUAL BASING<br />The advantages of individual basing can be seen especially when deploying skirmishers. Combined with uneven terrain heights, this aspect of tabletop gaming is visually enhanced. One does not need rosters either.<br />---<br />Votre serviteur,<br />BillGalliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12258909398832285314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-46182712698332666362009-07-20T11:07:07.693-05:002009-07-20T11:07:07.693-05:00Hi there Jim,

Looks like you guys had lots of fun. Thanks for allowing the rest of us to experience it vicariously (big words abound today).<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />StokesWSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-87342014035412798652009-07-20T02:52:54.037-05:002009-07-20T02:52:54.037-05:00Stirring stuff and just the right start to my week...Stirring stuff and just the right start to my week's holiday in which I hope to make progress on the painting front.<br /><br />It's a delight to see Napoleonic uniforms from before 1812.<br /><br />Can you tell us something about the artillery ammunition markers - presuming that's what they are? Also the thinking behind the double shotting rule you disliked.<br /><br />Poor Blucher. I assume that's a male elephant - he'll have nightmares. If only he'd rolled better for his morale influence. It adds a whole new meaning to seeing the elephant though I guess the more usual meaning was true for many of the troops getting a first airing.<br /><br />The skirmishers looked the part for both sides.<br /><br />A quick editing comment. In the caption for the first arriving of the Prussina regiment Winning you have numbered them 19 like the unit they are supporting, In following captions they get the number 23.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />Duke of BaylenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-79117620198804632862009-07-20T01:11:00.904-05:002009-07-20T01:11:00.904-05:00Thanks for all the photos.
