Tangoisms

I appreciate that this blog is becoming a bit like the ramblings of the Tangotronic 2000 over at the "dark place" but until I actually achieve something worth posting about here are a couple of wargames related items I've discovered on YouTube:

Two blokes present a Doctoral Thesis on how to take "stuff" out of one box and put it into another box. In truth this is a vital part of the hobby, and I can do it quite well. It's when I have to start moving the "stuff" about on the tabletop and  throw dice that everything goes to hell.

I have found that this video is best watched  whilst imagining that the two presenters are Eccles and

Whilst there  is a lot of tuneage that can be deemed appropriate for playing during Napoleonic games, I have always found music for World War Two problematical until I came across the following clip. Stick with it to the end, the last "Track" is an absolute gem:


Der Fuhrer Singt

Hope you like it boys.
