I spent yesterday in a 20th Century imagination- the world of 1938 a Very British civil war...A super games day was organised by Sakura and we all had a superb time .The venue was excellent and lunch well presented and tasty, others stayed overnight at the hotel and carried on today...
We were defending Berwick upon Tweed from attack from Scots and Anglican League forces. The pictures I took are of the gallant defenders (apart from the enemy cavalry and tank in one picture) I commanded. We had a superb day and I am waiting to hear the outcome as it carried on after I left...
I've never thought of a British Civil War - but why not, after all? Another war that could be in for an imaginary treatment would be if the 1937(?) 48-hour war between Hungary and Czechoslovakia had carried on...

Grand pics Sir.Looks like the chaps had a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteAn intringuing, original setting -and a 'morally soft' alyernative to the Spanish Civil War: somehow I feel more 'ethically confortable' with games of fictitious conflicts than with those re-enacting historical ones, specially if recent or contemporary.
ReplyDeleteWhat about an 'Emperor vs Elector'-like collective blog for the Inter-Wars fictional conflicts (BCW...) and countries (Borduria, Laurania and Opeland...)?
'EvE' merrily encompasses almost a century, but warfare evolved much more quickly in recent times, thus 'classical' (pre-1914) "Little Wars" countries should have a collective blog of their own. As would also, symmetrically, the contemporary Imagi-Nations (modern Oobleckistan, Baltic Prussia, perhaps Bongolesia?)?
