Here’s thanking you all for your support in 2018 and hoping that 2019 is a great year for you all.

On 18th June 1998, those of you connected to the internet might have bumped into a bright and shiny new web page (we didn’t call them ‘sites’ back then) resembling the one seen above. Of […]
Regular visitors and Battlegames readers will be familiar with my fondness not only for the eighteenth century, but also for what are nowadays known as ‘imagi-nations’ in particular. Elsewhere on this site you will find […]

Hi Henry, I have never written here before, but you comments spoke very much to me. As a 60 year old wargamer I have read your articles for many years, and enjoyed your wargames book. I now live in Sweden, but come from Worthing, and have just returned from a visit to my parents – so you and I hail from the same part of the world. On a more personal note, I too have suffered from depression and related problems recently, so I feel for you (and also benefit from the Calm app). We met once at a show, but I was rather too much in awe of you to make much intelligent conversation! Just to say, hang on in there, and thanks for everything you have given to the hobby. Best wishes
Thank you for your kind comments Adrian. I’m fine at the moment, and hope you are too. And please overcome your awe (I’m flattered!) and say hello next time you see me!
Bon Année Henry,
Looking forward to your adventures this year and eagerly awaiting the publication of the campaign book.

Merci Matt—and I, too, am eagerly awaiting the same thing! Nearly there…
Happy New Year, Henry!
Thank you Steve, you too.
That is an interesting and thought provoking blog post Henry. I get so caught up in the minutiae of things that sometimes I forget to step back and,look at the big picture.
In the hobby business I plan to keep churning out new AWI and SYW figures for Fife &Drum and hope to finally get pictures of all the product codes on the website. I am also working on some ideas for publications so I might be able to throw some business your way if you have some open time.
I’m fortunate to be part of a great group of gaming friends in Bill Protz’s group and this gets me to more games each year. The Seven Years War Association convention remains the Wargaming highlight of each year for me. Keeping active in the hobby on the social side helps to keep that black dog away from me.
All in all I’m looking forward to 2019 and whittling down my long list of things to,so. I wish you a Happy New Year too, Henry.
Cheers,
Jim
Thanks for that kind response, Jim. All the best to you and yours in 2019.
Happy new year Henry and wishing you every success in your ventures for 2019
JJ
Thanks JJ, all the best to you too.
Hang in there Henry, not the only gamer with struggles. May 2019 be better for us all, not that 2018 was bad…but I do always have more questions for more podcasts!
Cheers Jason, keep ‘em coming.
Good luck with all the plans for 2019 and Happy New Year!
Cheers Andy, you too
All the best Henry 🙂
Thanks Jim!
