Several of my blog-o-sphere compatriots have put up photos of their bits boxes.....had the thought after seeing them if we could all put our spares together what could we make?
At the very least we'd do a splendid job clogging up a room!
The Evil Empire on the Brazos (BEE) chronicles the on going wars (games) and the diplomatic efforts (Posts/GNN Reports) of all the known nations (wargame collections) in our little area of the
galaxy.Our goal is to both entertain
and inform those new to art of miniature wargaming, and have a few laughs with it. We are open to all and welcome comment from all and hope that many will come to join us in the madness.....)
