Easter

Happy Easter to you and yours from all at the Duchy of Tradgardland.

Out of the blue it's Army Red...

A combination of looking at old prints,fine weather here in the duchy and ebay trawling has seen me succumb to Army Red! I bought some dismounted Cherilea Blues & Royals yesterday and am bidding for some Herald highlanders...I hope to add plastic Guuaarrdds as and when. My new patio area will hopefully see some action between Army Red & Army Red/White this summer. Anyone knowing of cheap sources for Army Red chaps let me know...

Spring

Spring arrives in the Duchy and the cavalry take advantage of fine weather.

They explore the new additions to the garden.

As I can't find Paul's rules on the shelves today these will have to do for the photograph...

Happy New Year

A Happy New Year to you and yours from all at the Duchy of Tradgardland. Many thanks for your support here in 2013.

Christmas in 18th Century Tradgardland

Through the streets of 18th century Tradgardland the soldiers march towards the Ducal Palace.They carry with them a tree to be presented to the Duke and his family.The musicians of the Court play carols through the frosty air.

Merry Christmas one and all from all of us here in Tradgardland!
 I close with a page from a most treasured book from within the Duke of Tradgardland's Library of rare volumes-

Giving in to temptation...

I have been reading Paul's new rules additions and seeing his Altdorf scenario piccies.Just sent off for some AIP chaps in Stahlhelms to use as Freikorps in interwar FLW.What was that thing Oscar Wide said...
