While quarrying through John
Tunstill's Miniature Warfare magazine, mainly looking for photographs of Hinton Hunt, S Range,
Minifigs 20mm and other figures for the blogs, I came across this series by Peter Gilder, of which I have no recollection at all. As sometimes happened with Miniature Warfare, it seems to peter out after article 4, although it implies further articles are to follow. (I will check out whether it started up again after a gap of a few months).
Interesting for the title chosen by Peter Gilder, the articles are supposed cover the planning of a large Waterloo
refight in Hull in 1970, including the organisation, planning and actual modelling for the battle,
culminating in the actual battle towards the end of the year. He also offers the possibility of some readers getting involved in the project.
The series is illustrated with black and white photograph's of Gilder's terrain and Hinton Hunt figures.
The
wargame itself should not be confused with his previous involvement in the 1965
Waterloo wargame at Chelsea Barracks.
I have posted the four articles I have found
below. If more turn up. I will add them later.
