Massed Monrovian Cavalry ...
A spy over the border sent this hastily completed watercolour back to Wittenberg, its shows the Monrovia Cavalry on manouevres, with the newly recruited Leib Dragoner regiment at the front.
Hey, that's a *lot* of Monrovian Horse! More than appear in the 'Army of Monrovia' on http://homepage.ntlworld.com/allan.tidmarsh/Wargames/WG-F-Armies.html unless I'm deceived by a differeent rendering of the dragoon's blue coats?
BTW, your staffs and painted units must feel alone & forgotten on http://homepage.ntlworld.com/allan.tidmarsh/Wargames/WG-F-Armies.html Why not duplicate them on this blog, for the edification of the masses? Cheers, Jean-Louis
A blog documenting the encounters between the armies of the imaginary nations of the Kingdom of Wittenberg and its neighbours (including the Kingdom of Monrovia and their allies). My inspiration being drawn from 'Charge or How to Play Wargames' by Young & Lawford and 'The Wargame' by Charles Grant.
I have a number of other period interests for wargaming (from ancients to WW2), these have their own blogs, see below.

I agree. Massed cavalry formations like this one stir the blood. Well done!
