Well, as the Salamanca game is over and we’re on top of things, I wanted to show you some of the hidden secrets of the Wargames Holiday Centre. Around fifteen years ago the guys at the Wargames Holiday Centre commissioned a series of 28mm buildings to be made by none other than Mick Sewell. We have a few of these buildings, one of which is the Farmhouse of LA HAYE SAINTE. Now being as they’re a true 28mm they are a little larger than the buildings we normally use with the “In the Grand Manner” Rules. That is until a discussion with one of the guys here at the Centre, he suggested that we use them as 48 man buildings and you know what, it may just work.

Buildings are all relative, some are bigger than others and as long as the dimensions are in keeping with everything around them when I take pictures, it will work. I hope!

Here are a few shots of the La Haye Sainte Farmhouse.

I have included some British infantry skirmishers to provide an idea of scale. These are Elite Miniatures painted by “Reinforcements by Post”.
