As the Campaign develops there will need to be some extensive sapping and mining - both of which feature in the new volume, Garden Campaigns. Trench warfare can be difficult to simulate, and there needs to be that sense of the 'narrowness' of the trench system and artillery positions. This campaign is very much about trying out new ideas and is very much an exercise in Victorian toy soldier gaming.
Mr William Simpson gives us some good period images from the Crimea.
