Cheers, folks :) 

A few from this weekend's Second Punic War scenario...

Hannibal has crossed the Alps. Etruria is a playground for travel-weary Carthaginian and Gallic soldiers, who waste little time plundering and laying waste to the Italian countryside. Their pillaging brings them to a fortified Roman garrison - just two days march from Trasimene...

As always very impressive. Does it take long to set the terrain up?

You should have encouraged Johnny Morris to join that group. I'm sure he could have got hold of an elephant. In the Liverpool club elephants are often referred to a 'Sticky Buns'.

Cheers, David. It depends on the scenario. Sometimes I'll imagine something vividly and simply slap it on the board, nothing to it. Other scenarios, like the one I'm working on now for Zama, will feature a far busier board, and tend to develop a bit more organically in the ol' noodle...these ones take time. I've also got limited space in my apartment, which makes maneuvering around this 4x4 board a bit tricky at times...maybe I should hold off on starting that new 4x6 board...

 

@ 6mmwargaming, thanks mate :)

A day's march inland from the coasts of Puglia...

Libyan veteran infantry assault a small Roman encampment for control of a strategic river crossing.

With autumn coming to a close and winter fast approaching, a Celtic scouting party seeks refuge from the elements. A friendly farming village nestled in the foothills of the Appenines offers these weary warriors the perfect respite from the cold.

As always impressive.

Do the posts follow the actual course of a campaign or are they linked scenarios based on a theme?
