Dave Schaffner has sent us a look at his ACW Project
“ACW fans, I’ve been on a long journey with these 12mm Gordon & Hague miniatures seen here, as they’ve gone through a bit of paint pimping and two re-basing efforts over the years.“
“Pictured as of now, shows them formed up at their final roll call – and although they’re not Warlord Epic Black Powder minis, they look somewhat like those strip-style plastics.“
“More importantly for my gaming plans, they are based to be regimental-size units each, so what you see on the trays are multiple brigades’ worth of troops.“
“I think they look pretty cool, somewhat like little diorama’s, but the useful part is this little collection will easily allow doing quick-play, historical presentations (thinking also for DieCon already).“
“Just wanted to show what probably could be done with the Epic Warlord Games (and Wargames Atlantic now) strip-style minis too, being based to function as full regiments and battalions per stand instead.“
“So, maybe a little ‘Epic’ in potential after all.“

Readers and viewers – a link to a thread on the TMP forum here, discussing further the ins and outs of “why” I’m really enthused about this ACW kit here (and actually – it’s a “systems”-approach – that is transferrable to use with other historical periods and miniatures collections……past or future) –
