On the road with Bazza... Vaasa, Northern Finland 20 April 2016.

So, here I am in Vaasa, Finland (pop 60,000) earning Mrs Hilton's lunch money. My client takes me out to dinner in an Italian restaurant and we are presented with a special looking drink.

I am informed that it is 'officially the best gin and tonic on the planet'. Interesting for a gin soaked...

Well, the Swedes were famous for taking the initiative during the Great Northern War and Clibinarium followed their lead!


Out of the blue he told me he felt it important to support the existing infantry with gunners and he had unilaterally taken the decision to sculpt a few from scratch.




A few? Well yes, I perhaps got carried away a bit. How many? About 15....



The crews he has produced allow us to...

Russian General

I decided to experiment a little with the Warfare range in order to produce some distinctive command vignettes for the Great Northern War Russian Army.

Swedish view of the attacking Russian Army

They ran the game as a participation effort but again I am unsure which rule system was used.

I wanted to paint a battalion of Swedes who were not in the stereotypical blue faced yellow. I decided to imagine a later war look and a battalion formed from new drafts of recruits who had limited access to uniforms and equipment.



Thinking about Confederate troops in the later part of the American Civil War or German units in 1944/45 I decided that a degree of latitude in uniform shades and hat...

Flagged with blue

Toggy commissioned a painting contact who he has been using to swell the ranks of his Napoleonic Austrians to paint a few regiments of GNW Russians for our TACTICA game.

Flagged as a 2nd battalion with 2 company colours in yellow

I was very pleased with the results when they arrived in EK for basing, piking and flagging!
