Happy New Year & all that malarkey....bah humbug. Work, most definitely took it's toll on MrF last year only a measly 16 posts for the DBA 15K website. Well this year it will be different!!! Though it may not be DBA we'll be playing. I've had a look at a few other rule sets & at last found one that appears to be Ok. We've already started collecting new minis, this time in 28mm, so stay tuned.
Well done to Steve, another cracking website... check it out.
