My friend and I would like to get involved in 6mm gaming. We are both long time board wargamers, military history buffs and former USG / DoD employees. We are in Falls Church/McLean/Annadale area. Thanks.

Zietsev,

I’m also in the Falls Church area and I’m looking for some folks to game with.  I have 6mm American civil war, Napoleonics, and fantasy painted up, as well as some scaled terrain. (Basically enough for smallish games with both sides) Sorry for the delay in posting, as I hope you’ll still see this... I got busy with work for a bit.  Hopefully we can get something started!

Howdy, me and my friend actually are JUST getting into 6mm civil war as well as being history buffs. We're down in the Richmond area though, but we're actually planning on recreating the entire Gettysburg campaign in a few months.

Glad to see there's another group going in VA!  I'll send you a PM with details on how to get ahold of me, as I'd be interested in participating.  I could likely make a trip down your way for a weekend of gaming sometime with a little planning, and if you're planning on using Altar of Freedom I have several corps painted up to get us started.

I am in Aberdeen, Md. and wqill be putting on a 6mm (Baccus) ACW game at Barrage next weekend (28/29 Sep 19) in Harve de Grace, Md. (Harve de Grace Community Rec Center). If you can make it and have the troops, bring them. I have (painted) a small 2 Brigade (each of 5 regiments) Divisions for both sides ready to play. Need more details? email me at tomdye14 AT yahoo dotcom. Want to also put on a game at Fall-in. Little Wars TV has committed to be at Barrage again this year and those guys do a LOT of 6mm ACW, too!  Hope you guys can make it in such short notice.

 


Hi, Peter,

It's really hard to promote sales of your figures when it take so long to receive orders! Two examples taken from your website as of 6 Jan 2025:

1. Ordered: 16th Nov 2024   Order: #30514    Amount: £50.93   Status (same as in December 2024) Packed

2. Ordered: 12th Dec 2024    Order: #30806   Amount: £96.35   Status: Paid

Sorry, but I find two months has nearly passed and the order hasn't even left your premises although it was packed before Christmas (over a month after ordering). While I understand you have been catching up, perhaps the time spent working on new releases could be better spent on satisfying existing customer demands and getting them out the door? I want to recommend your products but if one has to wait so long to receive order(s), there is not motivation to order anything and might as well not exist if one cannot get it. You seem not to realize the impact of impulse sales and how not acting upon such is hurting your business. The key thought there is "your business". There are other scales available from companies that seem to value our business more than you seem to be able to demonstrate.

I want to inform you that you have lost at least 4 new customers in my club alone due to the tardiness of fulfilling orders. My efforts to build demands have been wiped out because of it.  This has resulted in that Baccus sends out the message that you, knowingly or not, do not care for expanding your presence into the US market, that orders from the US do not receive equal attention to fulfillment.  I cannot explain away that my order (30514) has been packed and ready for shipment before Christmas and now, a week into the new year, it remains on your "packed" status.

Promises mean nothing if not fulfilled. May I suggest your number one priority for the New Year be reducing the time from ordering to shipment? 

Thanks.

Tom,

According to Murphy's law, of COURSE I have to read your post right after it's too late to be able to make it.  lol  Thank you for reaching out, and I may be able to make it up to Fall in.  I've met the Little Wars TV guys up at Historicon, and enjoy their rulesets.  I believe our group has most of the Gettysburg OOB now for AoF, so we have a good stash of troops.  I'll send you an email and see if we can find a time that works. 

Cletus
