CHARGE! issue #24 to be mailed on-time!

Debi and I are pleased to announce that yet again, for the 24th consecutive time, we are mailing the most recent issue of the CHARGE! newsletter on time, as promised when we first started this not-for-profit endeavor. You should receive your copies within a week to 10 days. Articles include a neat old treatise on wargaming from the 19th century, a couple of scenarios for regimental-level ACW miniature wargaming, some terrain tips, a tour of a new Civil War museum in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and other goodies! Enjoy!

Still more photos of Pawel Chrzanowski’s 10mm ACW figures!

Here is the third installment of selected photos sent to me by Polish wargamer and figure painter Pawel Chrzankowski. He heavily customized the figures to add baggy pants and other details. His painting quality is among the very best that I seen to date.

Now, carefully check out this stand of Johnny Rebs -aren’t they painted magnificently? Shadowed, highlighted, and washed: these are simply terrific!
