Little Fox Ford has visitors coming

Hi! 

Some visitors will be arriving in Little Fox Ford in the near future.

They just need dressing in appropriate clothing.


Those US cavalry have arrived. 

There are foot and mounted, one foot for one mounted.

All told they may outnumber the figures I already have for Dead Man's Hand.

Remember though, that these were bought with the campaign I'm engaging in on the leadadventureforum. in mind. 

I'm likely to get some Indians when I get back to the UK.

The campaign has just started but I'm unlikely to get them painted before the end of March. But good for an ongoing campaign of my own.

I'd like more housing and the odd outside of town objectives:- mine, ranch, Indian village?

I'll look for scenarios for these also. Look out Wargames Vault!

Salute 53

Just purchased my ticket for Salute 2026.
I hope to meet the bloggers there this year.

I've put my name forward to game the Pony Wars on Lead Adventure Forum. I'm commanding the US cavalry, rather a First Sergeant called 'Chinny' O'Riordan. My old staff sarge from 3 RRF.
To this end I've ordered two packs of Blue Moon US calvary. One mounted and one on foot. Each pack has 30 figures. Works out around a troop. 'F' troop.
I ordered from Old Glory US and they will be delivered to me in Florida.
At some stagelater this year I'd like a 25mm fort and, maybe, some Plains Indians.

I took advantage of Sarissa Precision £5 discount and ordered the Market Hall and two two-story buildings to enlarge the village for Witchin' Hour.

Rubs hands in glee!!
