My main interest is the Sengoku-Jidai, specifically the period around 1540-1590. I play miniatures games in the period from large battles in 6mm down to small skirmishes in 28mm.

Snow? It never snows in November. Still, at least I can tell the difference between wintry precipitation and an airborne assault, eh Leutnant Enthammer?

Museum model of Nagoya castle. Constructed in 1612, so really post-Sengoku Jidai. But everyone still uses this type of castle in wargames, and they do look impressive.
