Hugging the Huguenots - My new wargaming passion Part 5
Colin Napier - Maybe it’s a reflection of my personality, perhaps a result of a childhood spent under the leaden skies of Western Scotland, but I’ve always felt an affinity with grey. Just as well when it comes to Huguenots as that’s the primary shade of their coats.
