£50 order - What you gonna get?

Let's brighten up the tone. I'm curious to know how you people plan to spend your £50.

In 2020 I painted mostly TYW and Napoleonics. I'll post some pics sooner or later (I want to complete some Austrian dragoons first).

I'll use my £50 to buy some Napoleonic Spanish. 

Infantry with hat, some with bicorne, grenadiers and flags.

I already have plenty of French, I'm almost done painting a couple of Portoguese Regiments, and have a pile of British to go. By June I should have plenty to figh the Peninsula War.

I would love to get that Early Imperial Rome Hail Caesar Starter Set.  Sadly it is just a tad over the order limit!  I think instead I will get the polemos starter pack and just try and base them according the Hail Caesar recommendations to get started!

I plan to get my first bundle of WSS figures. I'm thinking battalion guns, cuirassiers, and generals to start.

On a happier note, 50 GBP transfers to $69.23 USD. :D

I'm building all the units present at Quatre Bras (and some extras).

Pre-Covid, I acquired some French and most of the British (and Brunswickers),

So my next order will be British Guards, and Dutch-Belgian and Nassau infantry and artillery (and filling some of the French cavalry gaps).

Actually, the £50 limit is a good thing - it will encourage me to not overorder and paint in manageable quantities.

 Am just starting in 6mm (all my gaming till now has been solidly 25/28mm!) and am torn between Franco Prussian War and Napoleonics. It'll be whichever one I get the impulse for when the shop reopens!

I am actually new to the hobby so pretty excited that they are finally opening up the cart soon.

Looking to start out with a Union ACW army and a few packs of Union infantry.  Hopefully, they can process the smaller order fast and I can follow up with the same order for the confederate side and actually be able to use them.  :)

I'm getting some generic 18th century troops to bolster up my GNW armies. The combination of max £50 order and trying to avoid customs and taxation makes building up my order a bit of a strange game, I'm probably going to end up making two or three separate orders at around £16 as paying extra postage for each is going to end up less expensive then getting a £40ish package get picked up by customs.

Just a bit of army maintenance for me.  Bizarely enough, what I want most urgently is some more ACW flags.  I also want some Nizam-i Cedit infantry for when I want to use my Mameluke/Ottoman Napoleonic army against a British invasion  of Egypt.  (Napoleon didn't come up against the Nizam-i Cedit but the British invasion of 1807 did, I believe.)  I also ordered a bit of Irish infantry to form the core of an Irish Confederate army of the Great Rebellion when they aren't doubling up as part of Montrose's army.  Oh, and I ordered a couple of packs of Gaullish infantry to continue my slow project of replacing my Gauls (which are the really old, 3 to a strip type).
