Campaign PDF: Monrovia V Pelardon - The Siege of Fausignac

I've collated all the posts from the campaign shown on this blog (January to April 2013) and created a PDF.

A short break .....

I've been on a holiday break to Sussex,  during which picked up this rather nice book in a charity shop

 and paid a visit to Petworth House

plus a visit to see Brighton Pavilion,

the interior is amazing - such opulence

---oXo---

Now I'm back preparations have started for the battle of Hofheim, currently setting up the gaming table scenery - one side of the table is set up to represent the Hofheim with its medieval walls.
