2026 gaming Ovelist

Once again I've split my Ovelists into gaming and doing ( here ).  Here's the 2026 gaming plan: And as in 2025 I've gone for periods rather than specific rules.   Fantasy  - I didn't play any games using Fantasy figures last year.  I lost all interest in the genre and mused  about selling my Warmaster armies, having little interest in the GW world.  Sword Weirdos, Warlords of Eherwon and Midgard will be the rulesets I'd use, dependant on the size of game for this genre.

French Colonial) All of the above are additions to my existing collections and there's a square each to cover these.  My collection covers such a wide range of periods that I have more than enough getting these rounded/finished off to last me the rest of my life, let alone starting anything new.  However, as before I’ve left a number of squares with quest...
