I used autumn foliage as there was lots of yellow, red, orange and brown.

There is an absolutely terrific Viking scenario involving a whale (yes, no typo) which is genuinely worth the cost of the whole "Special" - and written by Chris Stoesen (kindly commenting above). I really hope you it - I'm officially nervous now in case you don't!Sidney Roundwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795563060856586670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279786472578722137.post-24556549041966831862012-12-17T18:07:05.752+00:002012-12-17T18:07:05.752+00:00Wonderful stuff Sidney!

I had material on the Stosstruppen on the Eastern Front and in Italy but I was running out of time and completely ran out of space. (I did want to try to cover Caporetto, but plumped for the 'Messertaktik' at Skrobowa instead). I also didn't get near covering the Stosstrupps at Riga in 1917, or the Friekorps Stoss formations in the Baltic in 1919-20. In the end there was material for at least a couple of articles - and all that after panicking that there was not enough!<br /><br />It is not as much fun as your (wonderful and brilliantly original) whale scenario, but I hope you like what I did all the same.Sidney Roundwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795563060856586670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279786472578722137.post-2074255939668324462012-12-17T16:38:27.120+00:002012-12-17T16:38:27.120+00:00Thanks Kieran - very much appreciated, and thanks ...Thanks Kieran - very much appreciated, and thanks so much for dropping by.
