Hard to believe those are 15mm models.

My initial apprehension of 15mm has been overcome.<br /><br />@ Monty: From the one game I played, it reminded me a bit of Hail Caesar; the three supports for combat (flanks & rear), as well as the die roll plus base number for command options. Combat resolution is also similar. Finally, there is a large DBA crew in the local area (who I've shunned all these years :)) - oh, and being able to store/transport an entire army in a cigar box is very nice!<br /><br />Warm Regards, DeanDeanMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07724268555970663130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561181956134839079.post-30966571830578742102014-03-01T07:10:20.852-08:002014-03-01T07:10:20.852-08:00Wonderful work, Dean!
