Hi everyone,

posted nice and early so you can go paint your army the periods for next years (surprisingly the colonial was the most popular period overall) If you feel I have missed anything do not hesitate to let me know. It also gives all of you out there with Pirate armies time to recruit the other 2 members of your team.

Alasdair,

Looks very interesting.

All I have to do is find the money for a new army and get it painted in time.

Hi Alasdair,

Not enough notice! Now, where is that miniatures vendor.....

Would we be able to use allies from outside of the designated geographic areas ? For example, in period 3 would Colonial Dutch be able to use Sinhalese allies from the Hindu Indian list ?

Will be talking to Ilford boys Sunday and get them motivated, we do have a team for the FOG R not sure about FOW yet

Brilliant Tim and Ilford

That would take us upto 5 and a third teams, nearly one division

if you could email me (alasdairharley@hotmail.com) Team name and players when you have time, if you know which period for each player and armies that would be great but no rush for army list or anything yet

Thanks again

Alasdair

I can now confirm Ilford will be there for FOG R and we may also have a FOW

FOG R
Period 1 The life and wars of Suleiman the Magnificent 1494-1566
Paul Kitcher - ?

Period 2 The Rise of France 1635-1648
Robin Poulton - Hungarian-Translyvanian

Period 3 Wars in North America & Caribbean 1622-1700
Dave Johnson - Buccaneer

Thanks for that

cheers

Alasdair

Blue Moon have at least one figure with a parrot... and wooden leg (of course!)

Also Peter Pig has a figure with a wooden leg and a parrot on his shoulder.
I remember meeting Sir Bernard Miles when he played the part of Long John Silver at the annual performance of Treasure Island at the Mermaid in the early to mid 1960's.
