I've been quiet for a while. Big changes at work, covid and a lot going on at home have conspired to keep me from posting. Like a lot of people at the moment, I've not had the headspace to do everything I want, or like. But this hobby gives me space and time to relax and be creative and with a little of that I've caught up a lot in the last few weeks.
"Against Spain - Wargaming the Havana and Manila Campaigns of the Seven Years War" is almost finished. The main text is done and most of the pictures I want in place. I'm currently checking my notes and making sure the sources and citations are correct and play testing the 6 scenarios which the book contains - 3 for each location.
The book contains an overview of each campaign, the leaders and troops involved, a narrative of the campaigns with period maps and paintings and notes on figures and rules. Like the French Marine troops and Maroons for the Sugar Islands Campaign book Crann Tara, now owned by Caliver books, have figures for the Havana Militia, British Sepoys and Indian labourers available, sculpted by Andy Stadden. Once again the book will be in full colour and will be approximately 80 pages long.
I should be finished everything by the end of this month and off to the printers it will go hopefully becoming available in August.
