      It's always sad to eventually accept you can't do summat that you used to do. (No smirking in the back!) But now you have a whole new, and exciting project.

      Enjoy!
      Thanks Ron:smiling3:.
      Chester is going to help me with the heavy work,he is also looking forward to playing some games with me.

        As I’m sure you know Ralph, Six by Four is a common figure gaming table size. There are plenty of really good rule sets around now that are designed for that sized table so you could have great fun exploring those with Chester....For WW2, as an example, Chain of Command gives a great platoon sized game.

            Hi Tim.
            I will look into Chain of Command.I have also had a good look at Black Powder and the Waterloo starter set.

                Well the railway and supporting structure has completely gone.
                I now have a 6×3 foot gaming table.
                Just need to give the walls a painting and everything will be done and ready.
                All the best.
                Ralph.

                  Well done Ralph, onwards and upwards.....unless you’re piloting a Helicopter, in which case it’s upwards and onwards.....

                    I have been looking into Frostgrave which looks quite good to play with Chester.

                      Just for info Ralph, it’s recently been updated to Frostgrave 2. Apparently the original scenario supplements still work with the new version, and one of the real strengths is that it is designed to work with any figures so isn’t tied to a specific figure manufacturer. if larger scale fantasy battles are your thing it might be worth looking at Oathmark, by the same author....

                        Ralph. I hate to see the Railway gone but I understand where your coming from. I’ve been thinking of dismantling my HO scale layout for a year now. I just can’t work in that scale anymore with my hands getting worse every year with my Arthritis I feel it’s maybe time to move on like you

                          It is Frostgrave 2 that I was looking at and I did come across Oathmark.I am leaning more towards Frostgrave 2.
                          And it is great that anything can be used to play the game.I have been looking at some of the Battle Systems terrain(I can't be arsed making my own buildings)and it looks good(I have Core Space) quick and easy to put together.

                            I know what you mean Lee,I could no longer kneel down to get underneath due to Arthritis.It was just about finished anyway and I had many hours of fun with it.
