New links/files on Web-Grognards, 27/10/96

The Grognards Challenge: Allan Rothberg was the first to guess Cromwell's Victory in S&T 101. This is Allan's fourth win, a feat only equalled by Robert Maglica and Dick Vohlers. A few knew the battle (Marston Moor) but got the title wrong. The counters were also recognised as 'TSR' era (small typeface). As a matter of interest the battlefield is not far from where I live. There is nothing there though to see but a plaque :-( A new Challenge awaits!

A list of new links and files on Web-Grognards follows.
