PONY WARS / PEONY WARS (3) - YOUTUBE

     Being an occasional series on converting the classic convention game, "Pony Wars", to a VBCW variant...

It's a while since we looked at "Peony Wars", the proposed Hereford VBCW variant of the classic "Pony Wars" system as republished by Pete Berry of Baccus Miniatures, and it might be while yet until we've even got a semblance of the number of figures needed to play...

Still, now that Miss Smythe of the Ludlow VBCW Research Centre has discovered "this YouTube thingy" and gone all multi-media, here are a couple of entertaining YouTube videos of Pony Wars games "in action", run by a friendly bunch of Maryland colonials d'un certain age ("Bill's History & Wargame World"): LINK HERE for a first game and LINK HERE AGAIN for the second game. Inspiration for Terrain Tsars and anyone wanting a good view of this classic 15mm convention game....

2 sections  - or 20 figures - of Presteigne Communist Cavalry, who take the place
of "Red Indians" as Pony Wars is converted to Peony Wars. Perry ACW Cavalry
converted with PSC & Warlord plastic WW2 Soviet heads.

Only 280 more Communist Cavalry to go!

PS. It's well worth rummaging around Bill's History & Wargame World, e.g there's a very lovely Rorke's Drift game in 54mm toy soldier style in a number of parts, starting HERE
