Wargames Terrain & Buildings (The Napoleonic Wars) by Tony Harwood

 


Tony Harwood, “Wargames Terrain & Buildings (The Napoleonic Wars)” 

Published by Pen & Sword Military (2019) 

Pages 160 plus covers 

Being that we here in England are in our second lockdown, I thought that I should get myself a belated Birthday present, which in fact was last month. This book has been on my list of things to buy at wargaming shows, but when it first came out it was one of them books that we hard to find. It was on my list for the shows this year, but with them all being cancelled due to the Pandemic I started to browse the internet, as one does in these times, I found this book on ebay for £10 and purchased a copy through Books etc. I know that most of you wargamers have already been lucky enough to have purchased yourself a copy, so now I can join the club. The good thing was that I took just a week for it to arrive via post.

The book is in soft back and it contains three sections with three projects in different scales in each. It gives you step-by-step guide with plenty of pictures to look at. Flicking through the book I can already see a couple of projects for me, like the La Belle Alliance in 20mm. So I do hope that the instructions are clear on how to make such a great model for the table.

I shall give this book a good read before making plans for building any models but before that, the Scotts Dragoons are still waiting to be finished.

  1. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did. I appreciated Tony Harwood's pragmatic approach, use of simple materials and clear suggestions/instructions.
