    Been talking to Duncan MacFarlane about this today. The programme was made in 1977 but he didn't get to see it himself until about 2 years later when Pete Gilder had a video of the whole series of 6. Unfortunately Pete was showing the video at Northern Militaire a few years later and it was stolen so this will be the first time Duncan has seen it in about 25 years. As far as he knows only four of the original six programmes survive so if anyone has the other two it would be great to see them all again.

    @@LuckyDrD Duncan founded both Miniature Wargames and later Wargames Illustrated. He made a career out of wargaming and founded the Partizan shows in the mid 80s. Sadly he died in 2021. My friend of 40 years.

    George Gush's WRG set - coupled with Gilder's Napoleonic artillery rules for added drama.

    Historical wargaming? Yes, I've personal yet to meet a woman who plays historical wargames. Fantasy and sci-fi wargaming does have some female players. Most are board gamers or roleplayers.
