My apologies, everybody!

I was actually work-working a couple of weeks ago and as I opened my computer there was an almighty CRACK.

This was a hinge breaking. With difficulty finding a replacement part and the discovery of a cracked screen as well it has taken this long to get my wee friend back.

Obviously there was a limit to what research I could do without it (once my 3 work days were done). I filled in the time painting a few batches of Irish rebels, Yeomanry, Fencibles, French regulars and militia for 1798 and then turned my attention to a game new to me, Battle for Normandy by Attactix from 1982. It turns out to be very straightforward (especially compared to the sister game 8th Army, with its detailed supply conundrums.
