Last post by Alex - April 07, 2026, 02:48:46 PMShame you don't do 5mm. I could have sent you a couple of sprues of French troops Warlord included as freebies for me.
I did see that Wargames Illustrated is including a 15mm tank next month, but I guess that isn't much use to you either.
I deliberately avoid Napoleonics simply because I get very bored painting the same uniform over and over. Doing it for my WW2 armies has been a real pain, and I know how a lot of the Napoleonic guys get when you don't paint everything 100% accurately. Hell, when I in two weeks painted an entire German army for an exhibition match in early war grey, I had one guy complaining that it wasn't accurate for a force resisting the D-Day landings because they weren't using those uniforms at that point in the war. Yeah, I've seen stocks of uniforms 20 years out of date still being kept in case of shortages and that was in peacetime, never mind when you are on the losing end of a war with a shortage of resources.

Bad Movies / Re: Scary movie backstories
Last post by M.10rda - April 07, 2026, 01:36:04 PMOh boy. I just came across this one... I daren't even attempt to encapsulate the facts behind this bizarre semi-lost film. Check it out yourself, if you dare. Trigger Warning for (ex-ten-sive!) discussion of/reference to sexual assault and obv NSFW:
https://lostmediawiki.com/Nice_To_Meet_You,_Please_Don%27t_Rape_Me!_(partially_lost_South_African_musical_satire_film;_1994)
If it existed in any form to sufficiently adjudicate its quality, it might've been one of history's great political satires. Or... just horrifyingly insensitive exploitation.

If ever there was a performance in a movie by a lesser known actor with comparatively little screen time (less than 5 minutes?) that deserved an Oscar, it was Harriet Sansom Harris' performance in MEMENTO. I might watch JULES just for Harriet Sansom Harris. (Jane Curtin is very slept-on as well, at least in movies.)
Both of them have lots of screen time in this. Jules is a cosy little movie about a serious subject. Whether you like it will depend on whether you are in the mood for cosy.

Last post by Dr. Whom - April 07, 2026, 12:59:56 PMWell, numerically the most important would be late Napoleonics (ie 1812-15), followed by the Seven Years War (mainly the Western theatre, so French, Reichsarmee, British, Hannover, Hessen)
Then there are what might be called armies and enemies of the Byzantine Empire from about 500-1200 AD, and the cavalry armies of the steppe and Islam from the Seljuks to about Timurids and early Ottomans
Finally, there are late medieval up to early renaissance
Now these are the large groups, where I can field sizeable and cohesive armies, but every once in a while I go down a rabbit hole. I am now completing a 17th Century Polish army (winged hussars!) who will soon face Ottomans and Tartars (of a somewhat earlier period, but what the hell)
