Intended for use in a planned Shiloh game, this Union commander is targeted to be Sherman.

The troops expansion continues and I expect to have the tool-kit for the eastern theater ready by next week. The intention is to have the recruiting for the online commanders start in June with the target of having a major battle assemble by mid-July.
Similar to Blood & Plunder, this 100 Years War era skirmish miniatures game hold some interest for me and some others around me.
Here is an article that deals with the title in some detail. <click here>
The proposed ACW game in July is to be centered around the Gettysburg campaign of 1863, post-Chancellorsville.
The main player with troops has told me that he may be short some Union forces, so since I have plenty done in preparation for my Shiloh game, not yet painted, I have started on them to 'fill the gaps' in the combined forces effort to put on a full table game in July.

Ideally this week I will be getting the finishing touches done on the game tool set for the Eastern Theater and might even have a play-test seeking players before the middle of May.
