While it is everyday that I do something wargame-ish, I do such diverse activities with all my different "projects" whether I want to, or not, few things ever get done to record. Thus nothing new to report. Sigh.
However to fill the large table, if only for the fun of viewing, I set up a scenario version of the Battle of Long Island of the AWI. I may not get to it, but fun to view the large number of regiments I have done --- and still more to do!!

| Inside the American fortifications |
 |
| The British flanking move |
 |
| The 49th Foot in greatcoats they wore during the Battle of Crysler's Field in 1813. I gave the Old Glory British infantry a "coating" of green-stuff. |
 |
| The War of 1812 offers fun variations on the usual British regiment such as the West India Regiments (left) and the Swiss "deWattville" (right) |
 |
| .....and the 13th Foot in white shakos from their stint in the West Indies. Did not indeed wear them long in Canada but that small detail doesn't make the 'cool!' factor. Sister unit, the 64th in garrison at Halifax, Nova Scotia, did however, but they did not engage in combat. |
 |
| Plus I have collected lots of the 'usual' line troops. Canadian militia in the rear reinforce the advance. |
