Somewhere a while ago I picked up a Prussian medals chart. I've got some feedback (some positive  , some not so  ) but I can't find where it was posted, nor who the creator was. Please, enlighten me.

Are you looking to purchase medals or study medals?

I am working on an updated, comprehensive German Medals chart, including Prussians. I thought the chart I got a copy of was someone else's effort at a Prussian chart, with a request for comments which I was going to offer, if I could find it.

Wasn't Marty the one putting out expanded medal charts some time ago? I thought they were quite good.

Marty did a bunch of Allied and Austrian ones, but he hasn't done any Germans. His were all published in the Aerodrome in hard-copy, the one I'm looking for the original of was a Word doc. I must have found it on line somewhere, but where?
This isn't a new chart, it's an improved version of an existing chart.

Doh! I looked at the doc properties - the Author is Paul Naylor aka Tippedtop. Hey Paul Where'd you post your Prussian Medals chart?

Oh, okay... I know what you're talking about! We carried Paul's chart in an issue of ISD last year (I think). Look through the archives and you'll find it. Its also posted in printer friendly format and download IIRC.

I found it, Vol. 19, #9 of the Dispatch, which also suggests posting comments in the Rules topic of the forum. As soon as I get them written up, that's where they'll be.

Well I am sorry to say I have been away from here for some time as my group has stopped playing DP for the time being, so I'm a little behind with the messages and news.
Yes, I was the one who submittedthe prussian medal chart. I was very pleased, and surprised to see my chart had resulted in any debate at all ! I just hope some pople found it even remoltey useful !
If anyone wants to contact me about it please drop me a line here.
Regards
Paul

Im glad that ppl even just took the time to look at it. I see from this link, that there is some talk of ppl doing German medal sheets some time ago. I just wanted to dable and bring in some more of the more obscure decorations. I took my inspiratuion from the works of Neal O'Connor and his stunning works. I put quite a bit of work into this project and was rather pleased with the final result. I am sure there will be ppl out there who think what I have done is nothing short of disgraceful ! All i atempted to do was expand upon Mikes origional sheets for medals as I have something of an interest in militaria and medal collecting. I hope no one os offended at what I have done.
At the time it was my intention to do sheets for each German State and I have gone some way to completing this. Unfortunaltly i have not worked on them for some time as I play D&D aswell and thats what my gming group is focusing on atm .My little girl started school as well and the wife demands more and more time ! Life !
I have started Wurtemberg, Saxony and Bavaria and one or two others. if there is any sort of demand for these remaining states let me know and Ill try to pick up where I left off.
Regards
Paul
