The Spanish Civil War, for example, is my longest-idle project, and could be used for a compact OHW game using the 1900-1939 rules.Rob Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01705547374834785174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3976591529493102006.post-58736918445356015232021-01-01T15:39:56.417-05:002021-01-01T15:39:56.417-05:00Ah, the Punic wars, maybe the first Ancient battle...Ah, the Punic wars, maybe the first Ancient battles that I've played with 1/72 figures.

You could do OHW mid/late 19thC scenarios with Morschauser style units (1 stand) with a total for both armies combined of 8 cavalry, 4 guns and crews, 8 skirmishers and 30 infantry (assuming 3 per base, 40 if 4 per base. Less than 50 figures, hardly make a dent :) <br /><br />Here's to 2021, may it be a good year for all of your family.Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.com
