Yeah my mum hated it when I set up my battles. My dad loved it though and that wound her up even more. In fact my dad encouraged me, I think he was reliving his youth. After the Airfix he went and bought a ton of Napoleonic solder moulds cheap. He then came home one day with a bag full of lead strips...I did ask where he got it but figured some church roof now had leaks. We melted this down and made a ton of metal figures that I painted up. I think they are still at my mums, will have to dig them out and see.
