Saturday at COW - part 1

On Saturday morning I had a look at several sessions and stayed for a while watching Trebian’s Culloden game. I think you’ll agree that His Royal Highness Prince Charles (Jim Roche) gave an excellent wargames point while Lord George Murray (Nigel Drury) looks on despairingly. 
The villains on the Hanoverian side were led by the wicked and bewigged Duke of Cumberland (John Bassett). I understand the wig has now been released back into the wild.  Mr Bassett remains in captivity.


All of the of the toys at Culloden were 20mm plastics, many of the Government infantry being from the no ancient Airfix 'Washington's Army' set.  Oh, the irony.
In the evening Bob Cordery ran his very popular 'Carry on up the Nile' game.  Players included notorious fellow-bloggers David C and Mark F.
John A running 'A Bridge too far.'  Actually this was on Friday but he ran it again on Saturday.
Trebian and Phil Steele presented their impressive Battle of Edgcote game
