The kids are alright then!
I was about to say the same so I repeat it: stunning table!
Great day yesterday at Herts of Lard organised by @joewargamer.bsky.social. Presented a Sharp Practice game representing the late afternoon attack on La Haye Sainte by the 13th Legere & 17th Line at Waterloo. A tenacious defence by the Kings German Legion saw the farm held in both am & pm.
Fascinating world of ancient #glass: This #Roman flask in the form of a fish was found in Cologne, 3rd c. AD. 🐠🐟
We don't know what is was used for, maybe the shape relates to the content (fish sauce), maybe it was used to hold oil.

We all need a timeline cleanse right now, so let's start the day with this lovely jug with an octopus motif, dating ca 1200-1100 BC.
On display at National Museum Copenhagen.
A lovely weekend to all of you!

Majestic view! Absolutely great!
Really perfect colour choices for this scale!

I only attended Salute and tournaments in UK so what I can tell you that the Tactica is dense and crowded but with space for small presentations and it’s own charm. You should try it.
Same here, but I could enjoy your dense jungle table for several minutes. I liked it a lot, especially for the dense terrain which seemed perfect for CoC!
We hosted 7 games of #byfireandsword wargame during #tactica Hamburg. The convention is one of my yearly highlights. Thank you guys for the participation and hobby chat. Always a pleasure!
A large early medieval settlement from the #Merovingian period was discovered in Rolleng (Luxembourg) in 2019. The excavation, which is still ongoing, has yielded around 6000 objects so far. Article in Luxembourgish and German w. link to the French press release: www.rtl.lu/kultur/news/...

Please support the petition against the planned #closure of #Archaeology at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
Archaeology has been a part of Humboldt-Universität academic tradition for almost 200 years, so closing it would break a long-standing research tradition

Short note from Germany: We checked that out for you. Was a total Desaster.
Fake it till you make it was a thing during the renaissance, too.
So cool!

It’s a great game. Glad to hear that it’s played or worked at in Glasgow too.
Today we had a game of #byfireandsword in the club. Sweden vs. HRR in skirmish size. I find Skirmish really challenging. If you steal an activation from your opponent by e.g. a salvo, this can turn the tide quickly. #wargaming #15mm

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.
