Breaking News -- All 80 of von Flickenhoffer's Fusiliers are finished!!!

Pictures to follow tomorrow, but I couldn't keep myself from a brief post mentioning this particular milestone. Save for a squadron of hussars and 4-6 more mounted officers, the Electorate of Zichenau's army is now virtually done. Oooo, I'm tingling all over!

Also virtual. My brain has been mush ever since, so an easy, completely unproductive Saturday watching intermittent snow fall outside (no accumulation however) and drinking coffee while the visiting handymen completed some repair work down h...
