| Introduction | I've been interested in wargaming since my teens, especially the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic period 1792-1815. Not having sufficient space, time or money for miniatures gaming, the advent of the PC has been a gift from the gods. Other wargaming interests: Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) on Vassal, Field of Glory 2 (Ancients-Dark Ages-Medieval), Pike and Shot and Sengoku Jidai on Steam. |
