As mentioned the Jacksonville Garrison were there in force, bringing with them the usual Darkest Africa and Pulp Fiction spectaculars. Once again evidence that if someone makes really neat figures for an historical or a-historical genre, people will game it. My guess is Catholic League, but the Winter King’s Militia had similar Colors. For all of that, the Augusta crew do some impressive stuff in their own right. Timothy O’Conner ran a recurring Panzers and Partisans game in front of my booth. There were Limeys and Slimeys games with big boats, a Boxer Rebellion game with 1/32nd plastics. There was even a game of Slaughterloo which mixed proper Napoleonics with improper cross dressing Orcs and Elves. All told there were 66 events listed for all scales and periods. Last year my attention was drawn to a Polish/Turkish DBR game in which the exotic 15mm soldiery were painted in detail worthy of 28mm figures. I was so impressed that I took several close ups of the winged hussars and they were to have been run in the United States Pike and Shot Federation’s Newsletter, THE REITER. Alas, we held back because we didn’t know who to credit. This year the DBR action involved an early Thirty Years War battle between Danish forces and those of the Holy Roman Empire and Catholic League. Still no mention of it in the program. But I’m out of patience. I’m going to print it anyway: I don’t know the regiment, or whose coach that is, but I’m impressed. Best I could tell the figures seem to have been from the Essex/Dixon lines carried in this country by WARGAMES INC of Tridelphia West Virginia.
