Not a lot new to report. Haven't played any games or finished much. I'm hoping to have Coffin's Light Dragoons, a provincial cavalry unit of some unclear origin, affiliation and dress finished by this weekend. Through some discussion on TMP I have them in light dragoon uniforms with yellow facings. I dare anyone to find data to dispute this, and if you do, so what! Major Coffin had his dragoons at Hobkirk's Hill where they accomplished little, and at Eutaw Springs where they captured William Washington when his cavalry's charge failed.
A couple of other quick items I've linked to Dave Schueler's
Naval Gazing page. On December 27th he'll host our annual DANG game (Dave's Annual Naval Game.) This year it is Lepanto. Long on my list of to do's.

I've also added my other non-gaming blog, From the Upper Left Hand Corner, to my list. Long neglected, this blog includes a variety of topics, but mostly Mariners baseball stuff. I recently blogged a review of The
Wall by Roger Waters which I was fortunate to see in Tacoma last Saturday. Amazing stuff.

I can't wait to see the finished product. I've tried painting on sticks, like alot of guys, but can't seem to do it.
