January 1st 2010
December 31st. The night of much merry making. Perhaps some quiet drinking. And, of course, New Year's resolutions.
Some decide to stop smoking. Others to lose weight. Some to get married and some to travel the world. Me, I decided 2010 would be the year of cutting back to just two types of gaming.
See how the Easy Strayed Wargamer survived January.

Braddock’s Road Across the Alleghenies |
|
|
|

Written by Chris Lynch

Major General Edward Braddock is best remembered for his disastrous attempt to capture Fort Duquesne and drive the French from that strategic stronghold on the “Forks” of the Ohio River. His army was effectively destroyed by an inferior force of French troops and their Indian allies at the battle at Monongahela on July 9, 1755.
Major General Braddock may have ended his military career in a dramatic and shocking way, but his real triumph was the then unimaginable feat of constructing a road across the Allegany mountains for the transportation of a British and colonial army, with its long caravan of wagons, and a siege train of heavy artillery. This rough hewn road was to transform the destiny of North America.

Part 1 of the Battle of Ligny. The Battle of Ligny and the battle of Quatre Bras both occurred on the 16th June 1815. These were the first battles after the return of Napoleon from his exile on Corsica.
The NWA Napoleonic group put on another of their New Year big battles also recreating both battles at the same time. This is part 1 of the battle of Ligny between Blucher's Prussian army and Napoleon's French army, as the armies deploy and the initial orders are given.

The first meeting at Mitcham for the year was a roaring success. A great turnout with lots of people and lots of games. The venue renovations are complete, including a shiny new floor.
The committee was kept busy fixing the trestle trolley, accepting membership fees and greeting members. Everyone had a chance to catch up with what they had done over the break. Thanks to the Committee and Neil for helping with the trolley, Sean for kicking off in the kitchen and John for fundraising.
