Category: 10mm FIW Project
My 10mm FIW Project (yes I know, yet again) another new wargaming project. This will be based around the Battle of Quebec.
The FIW was the North American conflict in a larger war between Great Britain and France known as the SYW. The FIW began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war supplied Great Britain tremendous territorial gains in North America. But disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war’s expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American War of Independence.
