The Pile -- 6/30/25 Longstreet 1863 -- WED Dogger Bank for WDRS -- THU D'Erlon's Attack for General d'Armee 2 -- SAT Another GdA2 game Snappy Nappy 1809 campaign Midgard Star Wars Rules Fight TTMATB "C&C: Napoleonics" &c.

It's time for the next installment of our "Longstreet" campaign -- another battle in 1863! Just in time for Gettysburg. youtube.com/watch?v=N7xp_N…

The Union is off to an an early 19-7 lead in our latest 4 x 4 1863 "Longstreet" game, but no one will accuse the Rebels of hanging back. Some nasty fights to come, particularly in the center.

No "I Ain't Been Shot Mum", tonight? No problem. Dogger Bank for "When Dreadnoughts Ruled the Seas". 1900 or so.

It's time for Dogger Bank for "When Dreadnoughts Ruled the Seas". youtube.com/watch?v=zuBWnl…

I'm fond of "When Dreadnoughts Ruled the Seas", but its Dogger Bank scenario needs to get back into the shop for a buff-out. When matters were called, the Germans seemed certain to escape easily with all their victory points in tow.

And now we're ready for Talavera for "General d'Armee 2". A hair over 10,200 viminis. Infantry, that is.

It could lead to madness. Tabletop Simulator allows really, really big game spaces. The first image is an Austrian corps based for "Snappy Nappy". The second is the entire battle space of the 1809 "campaign in a day", focus remaining on the same corps. Each table 6' x 4'.

We're back to Waterloo as we continue D'Erlon's Attack for "General d'Armee 2". #SpreadtheLard youtube.com/watch?v=1kuPSZ…

With Perponcher faltering and a chunk of Vivian's brigade in full retreat, the Allied left at Waterloo has become nearly unhinged. On the plus side, as the session ended, the K.G.L. reclaimed La Haye Sainte. System is "General d'Armee 2". #SpreadtheLard

The Pile -- 7/7/25 Longstreet 1863 -- WED Holding Acting at Arthenay for IABSM -- THU CoC2 Kursk: FINAL BATTLE! -- FRI D'Erlon's Attack for GdA2 -- SAT Another GdA2 game Snappy Nappy 1809 campaign Midgard Star Wars Rules Fight TTMATB "C&C: Napoleonics" &c.

It's the Soviets last chance in our pint-sized campaign, Storming the Citadel 1 for "Chain of Command". Friday Night Folderol.

It's time for part 2 of our second 1863 "Longstreet" battle. youtube.com/watch?v=tDKtgX…

The Union put on a clinic in this our latest 4 vs. 4 "Longstreet" game set in 1863. Victory is looking ever more elusive for the South as we cross the 1/2 way point in the campaign. The unit we dubbed the 54th Mass., if it may be forgiven, has been covering itself in glory.

We return to Arthenay where there will definitely be a delaying action. Other than that, all bets are off. All for "I Ain't Been Shot Mum". #IABSMRevolution youtube.com/watch?v=TbNmvU…

The Americans took a hard run at Arthenay, but their morale couldn't handle the heavy casualties and they've been forced to withdraw. One suspects they'll be back in this version of a pint-sized campaign for "I Ain't Been Shot Mum". #IABSMRevolution

It's time for a third run at at D'Erlon's Arrack for "General d'Armee 2". youtube.com/watch?v=EqOCGG…

This one is going to be close. Both sides in our D'Erlon's Attack scenario for "General d'Armee 2" have taken their lumps. The French have almost unhinged the Allied center-left. Almost. Three turns to go.

Time for a bit of Christmas in July as we take up the Siege of Bastogne for Sam Mustafa's "Eisenhower". Thursday.

I observe nothing other than that the scale works and this amuses me.
