Society news & other items of (possible) interest to members as of: December 2019

There's an interesting discussion going on over at the Fanaticus Forum (where the focus is anything even vaguely to do with DBA), concerning the Plastic Soldier Company's plans to start releasing a series of 15mm ancients ranges early in the new year.  Read it here.

Some further thoughts on playing 'Commands and Colors Medieval', this time from Richard aka Doctor Phalanx.  This is beginning to sound like another game that I should get access to, the only question being how I can do that without reducing investment elsewhere?  Hmmm, decisions, decisions.

And talking of medieval (well, early Medieval, as the cognoscenti would have it now), some of Victrix' forthcoming Dark Age & Ancient ranges are previewed over at Beasts of War.  My advice is don't look, it won't end well for your wallet.

Meanwhile, at Paul´s Bods blog, here's a little something for those of a certain age (i.e. much the same age as me) - a wonderful series of conversions from the Airfix Robin Hood and Sherrif of Nottingham sets.  Looking at the picture of Paul's initial pile of figures I'm reminded that I have almost exactly the same set of figures languishing in my own spares box (right down to the Roman auxiliary archer).

Maybe that's enough about figures but what about some new rules.  Here, over at the Wargaming Miscellany blog, is a review (well, more just a mention) of Graham Evans' relatively recently published rules 'To Ur is Human', a set of rules focussed entirely on the wars of Sumerian Mesopotamia.  A topic about which even Michael Caine knows little.  So maybe one for the specialist round in your New Year quiz?
