The
opposing armies are starting to move toward each other somewhere in
Bavaria near the city of Oberbratwurst. Yep, it's 1704 and the War of
Spanish Succession is in full swing. The Grand Alliance has finished
deploying while the Bavarians and French are still formulating their
battle plan. The Anglo-Dutch forces will be commanded by myself, while
the Imperial Army, consisting of the Austrians, Hesse and Denmark will
be commanded by Honorable Son #4.
The French will be commanded by Honorable Son #2 and the Bavarian Army will be commanded by Honorable Son #3.

Next up, the commanders.
Most young boys (and some adventurous girls) play with Toy Soldiers; some never stop! I'm proud to say that I am one that never has stopped. Toy Soldiers, painting the figures, history and miniature wargaming is what this site is all about. May the God who gives encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
