The foibles, pettifogging, quirks, idiosyncranicities, waffling and hyperbole of a charming, sophisticated and erudite gentleman of distinction, who rises above the hoi-polloi and riff-raff to bring a touch of style and class to wargaming.

Flashy in the Caribbean!
Seen here carousing are Colonel Mountebank Flashman and Mimsie Slopcorner, outside the Pink Pelican Inn. They are singing bawdy sea shanties whilst consuming copious quantities of rum. Colonel Flashman is supposedly in command of the Royal Marine detachment at Fuerte Indigestión. In fact, Captain Flack runs a tight ship with his Marines whilst the Colonel spends most of his time at the Pink Pelican Inn, drinking and wenching. The Marines are guarding the mysterious prisoner seen in an earlier post. Only Colonel Flashman is aware of the true identity of the prisoner and the reason for his incarceration. Rumours that the mysterious prisoner is none other than the Marquis de Hernía, the Man in the Iron Truss (thanks AJ!) may be confirmed during game play! Mimsie Slopcorner is the proprietor of the Pink Pelican Inn, a sink of iniquity where anything may be had for a price.

Lovely figures there, and I'm glad you found a use for my idea. (Huzzah! Fame at last :)
The Pink Pelecan is obviously the place where all the movers and shakers in the Caribbean hang out.
Yep, the Marquis de Hernía it is, although keep it secret!
...and I imagine once the game starts, you will be both a mover and a shaker! particulalrly if you get to hook-up with Mimsie Slopcorner!
Fantastic work Martin, she may need a cardie as I hear there's a storm brewing ! LOL
Thanks Dave, you're right about the cardie, I think there's a typhoon brewing!
A very nice pair Martin :)
Nice one, Frank!
