Been a while chaps. I've just limited my wargaming interest to playing wargames (Memoir and Optio and occasionally a couple of others). Here's a battle report (https://wargamingwithoutdice.blogspot.com/2026/05/back-after-looooong-hiatus.html) of my most recent Optio game with my playtester Peter who has acquired a sharp tactical sense with experience.

Piggery. What does?

I've tried ImgBB. Does it work for you?

That General from Carthage you keep fighting against is a cunning fellow. Always the unexpected ;)
