Garage-gamer: March 2012
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Tuesday, 6 March 2012. The Italian Division which along with the Polish Division comprises the French left wing. These are mostly Old Glory figures interspersed with a few from Front Rank and were all painted by Dom. The Austrian side of the battle, a picture of general withdrawal with, in the bottom of the shot signs of Steve's Swiss troops pursuing the Austrian left wing. Links to this post.

Garage-gamer: December 2011
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Sunday, 18 December 2011. It was a slow, quiet evening at the garage on Thursday. Our ad-hoc game had pretty much run its course and we were all aware that we needed to have everything put away before starting the next campaign battle which as I previously mentioned pits the Austrian juggernaut against a handful of Bavarians. A Brigade of Hesse-Darmstadt troops take position in and around a village. That's about all for...

Garage-gamer: Campaign: First Moves
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2012/06/campaign-first-moves.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Tuesday, 12 June 2012. A Panoramic shot of the initial dispositions done using a handy little utility on my new phone. Saxphalians mass before the defending Hanenburgers. The theatre of action. Saxphalia consists of Saxony, Westphalia, Hesse-Cassell and Bayreuth. Hanenburg is made up from Hanover, Brandenburg, Pomerania and Mecklenburg. The site of the first action. Saxphalian infantry begin to assault the centre, thoug...

Glen's Wargames Shed: March 2011

Sunday, 13 March 2011. GUARD ARTILLERY FINISHED AT LAST. Two updates in a month, whatever next – a finished unit! Well that is in fact what has happened, the gunner featured in the last few entries has been completed. The rammer was painted using a base coat of Vallejo German C Black (822) a very dark brown, a highlight of Vallejo Beige Brown (875) and a final highlight of Vallejo Light Brown (929). Wednesday, 9 March 2011. I have now finished off the cross and sword belt bay adding a coat of the same co...

Garage-gamer: June 2011
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Sunday, 26 June 2011. Our initial attempt at river sections sporting some of the bridges which the brave Allies will be using. The Prussian right wing lacking artillery support recoils from sustained French fire. The French left wing having fought off one half hearted assault awaits the next one. One of the small number of batteries so far deployed, firing on distant Prussian cavalry. Links to this post. More of Justins...

An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Sunday, 3 June 2012. By mutual consent our latest game came to a slightly early end this week with a win for the Allies. The French gambit of throwing the majority of their strength in to an assault on their left nearly paid off but their weak right flank and centre were unable to hold on for long enough. Swiss and German infantry supported by lancers and hussars force back the Allied right wing. 3 June 2012 at 12:25.

Garage-gamer: November 2011
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Friday, 25 November 2011. The Seldom Seen Kid. Prussian Landwehr painted by Neil Sheardown make their entry. Another shot of the Landwehr. The figures are all from Calpe Miinatures and are in my opinion the best there are by a country mile. I just wish that Calpe would expand their Saxon range. Ok so what are the changes that we're play testing? Austrian Jaeger advance warily towards an enemy occupied village. That's al...

Garage-gamer: Battle for the Centre
http://garagegamer.blogspot.com/2012/05/battle-for-centre.html
An informal look at the people who visit, and the games that are played in my garage. Thursday, 24 May 2012. Battle for the Centre. The French right, having taken the strategically vital village Neils' Russians push forward against a weak French division. The French centre held by a division of Young Guard has already seen off one attack by Nicks' Russians but now has to weather the storm from an assaulting Prussian Division. On the left the French have taken and maintained the initiative and are beginni...

La Patrie en Danger: Resources Page
http://lapatrie1814.blogspot.com/2013/09/resources-page.html
La Patrie en Danger. Wargaming Napoleon's 1814 campaign. Resources for the 1814 Campaign. Sunday, 22 September 2013. One of the biggest obstacles to wargaming the 1814 campaign is the paucity of information available, the majority of books on the topic are terribly lacking in the detail that wargamers require. Order of battle information, if it’s included at all, is given at divisional level and the description of battles is far more narrative that I’ve found in books covering other campaigns. If you kno...
