http://www.homestead.com/minden_games/ PanzerSchreck and board wargames. Interesting site.

http://www.jps.net/perrya/NewFiles/russciv.html - Rolf Hedges found this site on the RCW. worth a look, but slow. Good data and good pictures on the British interventionist forces. Another to add to the list the oob on white and intervention forces being most useful.

http://www.quoteland.com/baronies/war/civil.html

http://www.onelist.com/files/Piquet/ Tim Whitley offers the following site: Go to the 'Files' section of our Onelist Piquet web site. I have uploaded the Piquet-inspired, skirmish ruleset developed by Neil Stokes and myself. [At least, as explained previously, I have uploaded MY version of OUR ruleset. Don't ask!] and you'll see a folder called OnetoOne. Inside it is a MS Word document of the rules. Downloading it should be only a click away! Feel free to try them, comment on them, write to me about them. That's why I posted them!

Have you tried the Russian Legion re-enactors? They make and sell uniform items, notably inclusing custom furashki of the Officers' units. Their web site is: http://members.aol.com/begemot/emporium/emporium.htm

From Bob Mackenzie: The ENTIRE navwar list is online. http://www.navwar.freeserve.co.uk/ (note that Navwar license produce the ENTIRE Heroics line)

As is Skytrex http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/skytrexltd/homepage.htm

Irregular have the beginnings of a site - not much on it yet http://www.wargames.co.uk/Irregular/Irregular.html

Hallmark does 1/300th Infantry http://www.hallmarkfigures.freeserve.co.uk/

There is a GHQ list here http://www.warweb.com/ghq_ww2.html

Simtac in the States list the entire Scotia line - prices in the UK are about 30-35pence a tank http://members.aol.com/dins/scotia.htm

The Collect Air are on another page http://members.aol.com/dins/collecar.htm

Well thats all the BIG manufacturers covered. Missing are Adler 6mm figs, Skywarrior planes, Airpower planes, Mainly Military Planes, CinC (who apparently are about to be resurrected).

Then there are the defunct Trafalgar models (now license produce Navwar) and In Service Miniatures - but as you can't buy them any more...

From Dave Jackson: Warships of the Spanish Civil War

Hi everyone, just thought I would let the group know that a new website has been set up. It is for the Wyre Forest Wargames Club (in the UK). At present there is stuff on the club, Mid Nineteenth Century European Wars and the Second World War. Coming soon will be some stuff about the Russo Swedish war 1808 - 09. Please check it out and send some comments / criticisms.
