Longships- Wrath of the Vikings / Game length

Seeking clarification: does the countdown drop by 1 after each player's turn (which is how it reads), so potentially one player will get 3 turns & the other 2, or after both players have had a turn, so that they get 5 apiece?

Patrols in the Sudan / Re: Red Khaki or Grey?
December 18, 2019, 01:19:41 PM
Just be re-reading the old Military Modelling articles for 1980s centenary...

'Red' (or blue or green) uniforms used for Egyptian campaign 1882 but wore badly.  Troops coming from India wore 'Karkee' and weathered better.  However took time to create a successful khaki dye, so some troops wore grey during Gordon relief campaign - all Camel Corps and some of those operating from Suakin. The latter makes for an interesting mix as included both khaki and grey British troops, Indian and New South Walian.

Just converted old Essex figures (+PP reinforcements) to PITS, and Fuzzy-Wuzzies are bearing down on my gallant lads - must dash!

AK47 Republic / 'Old' Colonial/Settler Army

I've only just caught up with the Rhode... I mean generic Settler 'Professional' figures and am under severe temptation to create the Colonial/Settler Army I never intended to get.

I am still on Version 1 (Unloaded?) and used to use the PP boxed army lists as a starting point for assembling my own army.  Obviously these no longer appear; does anyone have a copy?  If so it will almost certainly mean that I have to start recruiting again...

New to the group and to RoF, I hope to join you to uphold the Good Old Cause.

I have 15mm armies based for Folorn Hope, but assume they won't be needed unless told otherwise!

Looking forward to meeting you all
