http://saxe-bearstein.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Being a record of an imaginary 18th century Germanic principality as relating to. The design and construction of a tabletop army for gentlemanly wargaming. Tuesday, March 24, 2015. Generating Families and Personalities? Several months ago someone posted a system for generating Families and Personalities for the major families in an imaginary country. It was different from the Tony Bath version (which I have) but I do not recall who posted it. Would someone please direct me to it? View my complete profile.

Being a record of an imaginary 18th century Germanic principality as relating to. The design and construction of a tabletop army for gentlemanly wargaming. Friday, August 29, 2014. While "real life" has been slowing me down, I have still made it to the painting table more than a few times. Pictured below is the current state of a dozen Pike and Shot units:. All figures were placed on painting sticks and black primed, then "damp brushed" with white and coloured "identifiers" painted on the sticks. View my...

The Alpian Wars: A Tale of Two "Knight Fights"
http://alpianwars.blogspot.com/2013/03/a-tale-of-two-knight-fights.html
Thursday, March 21, 2013. A Tale of Two "Knight Fights". Decks 18 and 19 were both short ones but very significant. South end of ridge cleared of Alpians. The very first card of Deck 18 was for Stagonia's Jillette Chevalier . . . and the Blue Squadron of those knights charged and obliterated both Captain Ariete's Battery and the Artillery Guards. This charge has eliminated all of Alpia's troops short of the defenders of Rose House. The southern defences of Rose House. Stagonia's forces on the North End o...

http://alpianwars.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 21, 2013. Rose Ridge Fight Looms. I finally finished my chemotherapy earlier this month and am finally getting recovered enough to tackle another "Alpian Wars" battle. South, looking North at Roseville, with Rose Ridge on Left. I am unable to get enough distance to take a "whole table" photo . . . so I am providing three shots across the table from each side. First, taken from the East, what lies ahead for Stagonia". South (Left) of Stagonian Line, Looking West at Rose Ridge. Now all t...

The Alpian Wars: Rose Ridge -- Initial Deployment
http://alpianwars.blogspot.com/2013/03/rose-ridge-initial-deployment.html
Friday, March 1, 2013. Rose Ridge - Initial Deployment. This post will mostly be photos of the two sides' initial deployments . . . so that they can send me their orders and I can start turning cards and playing things out. The overall goal is to be in control of Rose Ridge at game's end. That end will be at 24 1d6 decks. After 24 decks it will be getting dark . . . and how long dusk lasts will be unknown to the Generals. View from South looking North (Alpia on left; Stagonia on right).

The Alpian Wars: March 2013
http://alpianwars.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 30, 2013. Stagonia Captures Rose Ridge. Despite an heroic defense by General Rossi's Alpian troops, General Murdeau's Stagonians have destroyed or routed all enemy units and have gained complete control of Rose Ridge, the third battle in the Alpian Wars. Gen Murdeau and staff have just watched Rossi flee Rose Ridge. To his credit, General Rossi and his surviving staff were the last to leave Rose Ridge as five Stagonian units closed in on Rose House. What will happen next? Alpia's Izzo and...

The Alpian Wars: Sweep Continues in Decks 4&5
http://alpianwars.blogspot.com/2013/03/sweep-continues-in-decks-4.html
Monday, March 4, 2013. Sweep Continues in Decks 4&5. The apparent sweep to the left by the Stagonian army at Rose Ridge continued in Decks 4 and 5. Alpia's Qeel Regiment observes the Stagonian sweep. Led by crossbows, then swordsmen, two pike and shot regiments and some mounted, the "sweep" looks to be quite powerful. Here are some views from other angles:. View from the side looking north. View from behind Stagonia's left. So now I await further instructions from my two online generals.

Alpia's Izzo Regiment faces the Lau Crossbows. Here (at left) i...

Kingdom of Stagonia: September 2010
http://stagonia.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
An imaginary 18th century nation occupying the same general location as Bavaria. Traditional enemy of Saxe-Bearstein. Wednesday, September 15, 2010. King Ludwig was going through some old records when he came across an account of a Stagonian raid into the Duchy of the North. It should be noted that the king did not think of his nation as "vile" . . . one of the ways in which he is almost unique). He carefully opened the report and began to read . . . . An account will follow next week.).
