Guess I'm just a Blog Whore.<br /><br />Certainly though, having it all on one blog is certainly easier, especially seeing as it is just the two periods you have going. And in the end it's as Doc says, just do it the way you want to do it.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07889130893225462338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-18767207561917870042011-06-06T09:02:21.602-04:002011-06-06T09:02:21.602-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07889130893225462338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-90583982281693576402011-06-05T21:08:37.401-04:002011-06-05T21:08:37.401-04:00I'm debating the issue myself; my blog will be...I'm debating the issue myself; my blog will be predominantly Napoleonics for at least several years to come, but I also have a fair amount of Renaissance/Italian Wars, Late Medieval, and even ancients stuff, and I sort of feel it belongs in a different place,ewspecially with the very Napoleonic title of my opwn primary blog.Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-11937144143499956552011-06-01T22:42:17.282-04:002011-06-01T22:42:17.282-04:00Agree with most of the others - use the same blog....Agree with most of the others - use the same blog. I've mixed it up quite a bit on mine and found it quite refreshing - you don't get bogged down in Napoloenics or whatever era you're obsessed with at the time. <br /><br />While I quite admire the FoW 15mm treatment of WWII, it is a bit hard and fast with historical reality in some aspects AND if you wish to do it justice, can be expensive to collect (although no more than Perrys or Foundry I guess). I discovered 28mm WWII and 'Disposable Heroes' rules which also have quite a following in the US. Thats using 1/48th scale models for armour etc, which I have found both challenging but also very rewarding to make and paint. Fantastic eye-candy on the table too!<br /><br />At the end of the day, do what excites and interests YOU the most!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /> DocDochttp://Docsartofwar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-8364683257004443872011-05-30T13:57:17.021-04:002011-05-30T13:57:17.021-04:00I'd suggest sticking with one blog, but whatev...I'd suggest sticking with one blog, but whatever makes sense to you is likely the right answer. The rest of us will follow along whichever way you go.<br /><br />15mm WW2? That was my first foray into historicals after following my son into the 40k world. While it get's bashed by the rivet counters, I like Flames of War for 15mm WW2, it's well supported and players abound. You can always substitute the Battlefront mini's for less expensive ones like the new plastics from "The Plastic Soldier Company"<br /><br />Good luck with the new endeavor and I look forward to seeing your progressjmilesrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17961624317410579611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-75913345266387684022011-05-30T04:50:51.393-04:002011-05-30T04:50:51.393-04:00I don't care - just keep blogging...

I've also recently branched into a smaller scale than 28mm and finding it a refreshing challenge. <br /><br />I'd say stick with one blog, easier to follow and most people have broad hobby interests I suspect.
