Very excited to get home and see the postie had delivered a package from On Military Matters that enclosed this book of Landschnecht goodness.
It is dual language - Italian / English. It has 80 pages, 18 of which are full colour of uniforms and flags. Each of the remainder pages has a woodcut / engraving or two plus text.
It covers the:
- battles
- commanders
- organisation
- weapons and equipment
- clothing
Napoleonics, WWII, ACW, ECW in various scales are all sitting in boxes awaiting some attention. Once in a while a unit gets transfered to the painting table and may even end up painted in a formed unit. This will chronicle my haphazard attempts to work down the lead mountain.

Landschnechts doing their thing at Cancon
Unfortunately the only two photos that I was able to take of the Landschnechts and their Italian allies in action in the service of the pope at the recent Cancon convention.
As I noted in the post below, this was a great two days of gaming with a great bunch of blokes.

Huns on the field
John and I played a few games at the club in Goulburn last weekend. Two games of 350 points Impetus. John brought his Normans and I had the Huns.
Results were evenly split - one game each. Both games were a lot of fun.
The mat is one that I won at the Impetus comp in Cancon in January. It was generously donated by Campaign Books and Games Logistics http://www.campaignbooksandgameslogistics.com/
