some plans for this year

So I should make a basic plan for some games I might be able to get into this year.

1. First up should be some Rebellion of 1837. Now that I have sufficient early 19th century types, I should be able to put some of the battles for this.

2. Fenian Raids. Another project I have wanted to do for a bit, eventually I should see about getting some Crimean War types for Canadian Militia. The Fenians will be made up of the remaining Cowboy types I have.

3. Crimean War actions: I still have some Russian figures and in a pinch, I can throw in some French Foreign Legion types. The British will just have to make due with the Napoleonics I have.

4. Riel Rebellion. The one action I haven't fought so far is Batoche. I have enough earthwork type stuff and terrain effects that I could put together Metis rifle pits.

5. Majuba 1881. Now this is a battle I'll have to draft in several different figures. And eventually, I should be able to get some late 19th century Highlanders.
The Boers will have to come from my cowboys.

6. Indian Munity 1857. Wargames illustrated has some ideas I'm going to try out.
