Paint & Scale: Wargamming; the lost episode

In this Paint & Scale Gary (OC French Det), Phil (OC Wargaming) and I go a little off-piste and end up discussing Museum Dioramas, Peter Cushing, comparing approaches to museums, flat figures, El Alcazar and the German approach to battle reports. Oh and TEWtS or Practical Exercise Not Involving Soldiers. Special mention to Soviet Partisans and the Omaha Beach Museum.
