18th Century Wargaming - the ongoing saga of the conflicts between Wittenberg and neighbouring countries..
Welcome
Welcome to the Kingdom of Wittenberg.
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.

A very fine and likely mix.
Are the ones uniformed in blue coats wearing the 'official' uniform of the militia, or are they 'professionals' from a regular unit providing a 'cadre'?
Do I see a clergyman on the extreme right?
They'll need more practice, but look eager to improve!
Quantity has a quality all its own.
Send them back to the butts - more practice and less games of chance/drinking etc!
An excellent unit Sir!

The ones uniformed in blue coats are wearing the 'official' uniform of the militia. In peacetime there is 1 company and a cadre of officers, at times of war the ranks are swelled by the reservists who bring their own kit and muskets.

Does anybody dare to inspect the private kit of militia?
