Old School Tactical

 Old School Tactical is a fine addition to my tactical wargames collection. I am lucky enough to own the first two volumes and the Airborne expansion.

Here are a few shots of tonight's Eastern Front game.



The maps are beautiful, here are a few close ups.  



There are info cards for the units and they are very useful.

The game plays very well solo and the back and forth impulse point system gives you some tough decisions.

Smashing!.

Another 1000 miles done.

 I've managed to walk another thousand miles since the end of August last year, that makes 1000 miles in 40 weeks.

I am now lighter by another half stone, that is three stone lighter since lockdown. Also my heart is now in normal sinus rhythm and I feel as fit as a lop.





One of my neighbours, Les often walks with me. Les was a shepherd in the Lake District and he walks between eight and twelve miles a day, not bad considering he is eighty years old!. He is an inspiration and puts a lot of younger folk to shame. 


In fact there is quite a community of old gadgies that walk these country lanes, they're amazing really.

Well, I'll maybe get a couple of hundred more miles walked in the next twelve weeks.
And then I'll start again.

Happy days!.
