An Saturday afternoon playing toy soldiers
I as extremely lucky to be a part of a true miniature wargame experience. Ed, from Ed M's Wargaming Means a blog put on a amazing game. It was a massive Napoleonic game, French vs Prussians. It was fought over a main table of 20' with two similar size tables for the match on area. So troops could be deployed and moved off table before marching into the main table. Very ingenious. To assist commanders looking across the room at the enemy armies Ed provided miniature telescopes!
Great fun trying to ID what those troops entering the table could be.
Both Ed

blogs provided outstanding reviews of the great battle. Since I was a lowly brigade commander i was lost in the middle of the table and honesty cannot tell you what was happening around me. Fog of war indeed.
Again many thanks to Ed for the great amount of work he put into this game and the incredible experience he provided to us all. Thank you Ed!
