This blog hopes to inspire me to document my more interesting games and projects. Ancients, medieval, Napoleonic, ACW, WW2 and fantasy are my main interests and collections. Lots of boardgames too.

It has been a log time since my last post. I have been very active with the hobby but have not been good about documenting my journey. I have thought about posting a lot and been a bit paralyzed lately because I was not sure where to start. In the end, I might as well start with my most recent project and the one I am currently excited about.</div>

I have always had an interest in the Desert War WW2. I like tanks and the desert is tank country. I have been reading about the campaign and watching documentaries to fire my imagination for recreating the scenes and battles of the conflict. I have chosen Sam Mustafa’s "Rommel"</div>

as my rules for the game. These rules are divisional in scale and allow the refighting of the battles at this large scale. There are 12 scenarios available covering the period and I have used these as a basis for building my forces. The rules require two or more players as there is a lot of bluffing involved, so solo play will be a challenge, if not impossible. I will review the rules at a later date. I was able to play them at last years Huzzah to try them out.<br />

I have made excellent use of my 3d printers to build my forces. I am playing the game in 15mm as this is the scale of the bulk of my WWII toys (I also have 28mm, but this would not be good for a mass battle scale game). As I have been in lockdown for 3 months now, I have been able to focus on a lot of painting and preparing for games but no gaming.</div>

I went through the list of scenarios and this provided my list of needed troops for the campaign. I have been printing and painting Desert War tanks for a while without focus, so I had a good pool of models to get started. With a 3d printer, the tanks, trucks and guns are penny’s a model so I was able to indulge my megalomania and build lots of goodies. The problem will come when I need to paint them all up. Luckily, I have painted lots of test models and have a reasonably fast and attractive process.</div>

The missing element of my plan has been infantry. There are not many historical 3d printable infantry out there but I did find a good selection of Italian infantry for a mere $20. That $20 and the cost of materials allowed me to print 150 troops to meet my needs for Italians. They were made for 28mm but I was able to rescale them to 15mm. I was also able to do head swaps digitally to build Bersagliari troops as well as regular infantry.</div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">Napoleon’s command was divided between 4 players. Right center and left with an overall commander. I was able to umpire the game. The Allies were divided up similarly with one player assigned as Kutosov/Alexander. The Allies had to roll every turn to see if Alexander took over command of the army with his drastically reduced command range (it’s good to be the Czar you know). The French developed a dynamic plan and the Allies seemed happy to stay on the Pratzen Heights and were slow to react.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">The French left a screening force on their right and marched everything toward the unoccupied center/right of the Allied line. The French successfully occupied a town at the foot of the Pratzen Heights and used this has a base to form up and advance, splitting the Allies in two. Allied reinforcements arrive too late to prevent this and the French superior command and troop quality rolled up the unresponsive Russians holding the Heights.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">We did not get to complete the game but all agreed the French were in a very good position to repeat history and decisively defeat the Allies.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">This was a fun game but also a learning game for many of the players. We agreed to have another game soon to cement the learning of the rules in the players minds. The French Napoleon knew the rules the best and also brought an excellent plan to the table and it went to plan. Next up Auerstadt.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">I have decided to return to the blog after a long hiatus. Part of the problem is staying motivated and part of the problem is occasionally being locked out of the blog by Google. I have been enjoying the hobby as much as ever but not documenting it beyond my FB posts to gaming groups. I started the blog for me to enjoy looking back at my tabletop fun in later years and to share with this community of fellow gamers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">I think it has been over six months since my last post. My wargaming interests have meandered as usual but with a definite bend towards fantasy gaming. I purchased a 3D printer for Father’s Day in June. This has been an amazing new hobby to explore and I have been printing and painting from this device for the past 6 months.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">I started playing through the campaigns of the Grande Armee 1805-1807 using my 15mm figures and Napoleon Battles rules. I built a giant teddy bear fur game mat that really adds to the look of these games. I think I will start my return to the blog by recounting these games.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">The scenarios available were Austerlitz 1805, Auerstadt 1806, Eylau 1807 and Friedland 1807. At the time of writing this, the first three games are under my belt and planning is underway for a big get together to wrap up the campaign in January 2020.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">I have decided to return to Napoleon’s Battles (NB) as a rules choice after experimenting with others such as Command and Colors: Napoleonics and Commit the Garde. NB was my first introduction to historical gaming and holds a special place in my game brain for many reasons.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><br />1) It gives and excellent feel for the period in that the game looks like a big sweeping battle of the period.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">2) It has a lot of granularity which I like with both sides of the fight involved through out the game.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">3) There are no hexes to distract from the look of the battlefield.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">4) All my thousands of figures are based for NB.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">5) It is an excellent multiplayer game</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">6) I love the command and control system</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">The big downside is that the games take a long time to play. I would say a big battle would take 15-20 hours to complete to a decisive decision. I have had to except this and adapt to this limitation. We plan for long games and then conclude the game with a speculation of how the battle would be completed if it were played out.</span></div>
<div class="yiv1449325910ydp9d57e16aMsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">I won’t drone on any more for this post and will follow up with write ups for the battles in the campaign.</span></div>

The group was very active for many years and there was a treasue trove of pictures of our gaming adventures on the sight, soon to be lost to the digital ether. I quickly went to the archive and downloaded a large sample for preservation. Below are a sampling of the pictures of the many projects the old group put together...<br />

The German army is making preparations for operation Winter Storm with the goal of liberating the encircled 6th Army near Stalingrad. This is a series of scenarios published by TooFatLardies.<br />
<br />
The first scenario is an ambush by a platoon of Partisans attacking a German train. This train contains troops for the upcoming operation. I have been buying train cars and tracks over the past year as I see them become available second hand. I had the hardest time getting an engine. Model train engines are expensive because they contain the motor. Finding one that looked right for the period was proving a challenge. I finally bought a child version that looked great and was cheap. Game on!<br />

The Partisan plan was to occupy the woods and try to catch the Germans in the open as they try to deploy from the exposed train.<br />
<br />
The German plan was to try to attack one flank in strength and gain the cover of the woods.<br />

The Partisans started by deploying a section on either side of the train. The Germans deployed the HMG but this was quickly shot up and routed. They then sent two sections to try and take out the partisans on the left. This went poorly as the Partisans deployed their third section with SMGs in close range of the Germans. They routed a German section and battered a second with the help of the Partisan senior leader.<br />

The German cut their losses and withdrew until more reinforcements could clear the partisans.<br />
<br />
This game went very quickly. The Partisans had a triple turn to fire on the exposed Germans as they attacked from the train.<br />
<br />
The next scenario will feature the train as well but I will need to construct a station house...Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15105115373962034056noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358312556341630911.post-88105055716801018832019-03-10T09:44:00.002-07:002019-03-10T09:55:27.276-07:00Make SailI have spent my third weekend on my galleon project and am ready to call it complete. There is always more to do but I have to quell my obsessiveness and christen it complete. This was a fun project that used many of the skills I have been developing as a terrain builder over the past couple of years. <br />
<br />
The painting process was pretty simple. Brown Modpodge as a base coat for strength. Medium brown basecoat, light brown highlight and an inkwash for the deck surface.<br />

I was going to leave the shipped without rigging. I built it to use in my D&D game and rigging would interfere with game play. In the end I went for it and am pretty happy with the result. I am telling myself if I built anymore ships, they would take half as long and look twice as good because I learned so much going through the build process.<br />

This gentleman's blog helped me rig my 1/1200 74 gunner back in the day. I used this model to help with the mast design and also the rigging.</div>

I took calipers to the 1/1200 model to get the ratio of the masts and yardarms relative to the hull. The masts are 1/2 inch dowelling and the yardarms are 1/4" dowelling. The fighting tops are Styrofoam with nails and string making up the rail. The ship rails are nails topped with balsa strips. I used finishing nails stuck into the Styrofoam to attach the rigging to. I decorated the masts with bands of electrical tape. I harden the string used for railing by soaking it in pva/water. I did this to a bunch of string which I planned to cut into strips to glue to the ratlines as crosshatching but ended up skipping that step.</div>

The sails were made from paper towel soaked in pva glue/ water solution. I went for furled sails cuz it was easier. If I was going to do full sails, I would have made form out of Styrofoam and draped the wet paper towel over it to dry and harden in the appropriate shape. Maybe for my next ship.....</div>

One of the players wanted to use his Early Imperial Romans so I found a scenario for them. The Battle of Watling Street saw the end of Boudica's revolt in Roman occupied Briton in 60 AD. The two sides faced off across the fordable River Anker. We had 6 players, 3 per side with each player commanding a section of the battlefield. I ran the Celtic center and that is the angle of most of my pictures.<br />
<br />
The Romans sent their cavalry across the river on the flanks. They enjoyed initial success and took out 5 units for none lost. The Britons quickly reorganized and repulsed the attack and then counterattacked across the river at the flanks, with some success on the right flank. The Romans decided to risk the river crossing before their flanks crumbled. They got a bloody nose trying to cross but eventually drove the Celts back resulting in a 12-10 Roman victory.<br />
<br />
It was a pleasant afternoon of gaming in which I met some new players and reminisced with some old friends. Hope to do it again soon.<br />

Ahoy mateys! I have had a desire to build a ship for my 28mm fantasy gaming for a couple of years now. I was off work with an injury and got inspired to take action. </div>

I cut out the pieces from 1" XPS foam insulation using my Proxxon hotwire table cutter. I beveled the edges a little to make it "shipshaped". I used a pen and xacto knife to cut in the wood grain on the decks.</div>

I thought about carving the sides of the ship to the right shape. This was not working well with the tools I had and because of the awkward shape of the hull. I went with plan B instead. I peeled the paper off of a sheet of 5mm foamcore. I drew in the planks with a pen and textured the foam with a wire brush. I cut this sheet into rough semblances of the sides of the ship and hot glued them in place. I used my xacto knife to fine to the fit. I also rough out a piece for the stern.</div>

At this point I had a ship! I started to add details from my bits box. A trip to Home Depot yielded a bag of nails to use as rail posts, wood decorations for the stern castle, a bunch of doweling for masts, PVC plastic tubing to hold the masts in the hull and crack filler putty to cover up my mistakes. The Dollar store provided string for rigging, grommits for the port holes and a resin Cherub for the bow decoration.</div>

I made lots of paper templates to get the stern castle pieces right. The Proxxon cutter worked the trick for shaving this sheets of foam to cut into shape. I found a picture of Sir Francis Drake's flagship,<em> The Revenge, </em>and modeled the stern castle of it. I was very pleased with the results but if I were to do it again, I would give the ship more upward slope towards the stern and add some height to the stern castle.</div>

I was finally ready to paint after about 12 hours of work. I got out my Modpodge and added brown paint. This gave an undercoat as well as a hardness to the model. Stay tuned for the finished paint job and the addition of rigging and masts</div>

The site had a huge photo section where the players dumped their photos of our table top exploits. I have pulled a few out for this post and hope you enjoy. The group had some excellent photographers!<br />

Ancients:<br />
<br />
The group played a lot of ancients and the rules of choice were Warhammer Ancients Battle.<br />

ECW<br />
<br />
The group embarked on a few projects where all players agreed to collect and paint figures for a period. ECW was one of the more successful projects. Unfortunately one of the main troop providers moved to Ontario causing my Royalists to sit idle for many years. They were eventually expanded and divided into two armies and based for Baroque. Rules we used included WRG ECW, Warhammer ECW, 1644 and Victory Without Quarter.<br />

Colonials<br />
<br />
A few of the members had large colonial collections so it was heavily played. Here is a scenario of getting the releif column through the ambush to relieve the fort.<br />

Franco Prussian War<br />
<br />
Mike was probably the most prolific painter and collector of figures in our group. Below are pics of his Franco Prussian War games in 28mm. He had excellent terrain and a lovely game room to play in. Also moved to Ontario...<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was able to play out the Battle of Marathon the other night. My wife was my opponent for the battle. She has recently learned the rules and was kind enough to participate so I would not have to play solo. She took command of Darius' Persians. The scenario takes place after the Persians have started the withdrawal of their cavalry and the Greeks have marched off their hill to try and prevent the withdrawal. The Greeks were dealt a good hand of cards and were able to press the attack using 2 line command cards in a row. The flanks were loaded with the heavy hoplites and these moved to engage the Persians. The centre was held by light troops and they advanced to javelin range and did their best to shoot up the Persians.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Persians responded by standing and firing at every opportunity. They were very brave in that their light troops never evaded when attacked by Greek heavy troops (I think my wife wanted to reach a conclusion sooner than later and she saw evasion as drawing things out). Miltiades was able to over run the Persian left and Callimachus had some success on the other flank. Darius was held off from success in the centre against the lighter Greek troops. In the end the game ended 10-6 in Greek favor. </div>

A couple of Youtube tutorials later and we were ready to paint...<br />

I had purchased a venerable set of Greeks in 25mm scale last year and was glad to have a historical and similarly sized opponent to oppose them. These were from the same collection of veteran wargamer Ross MacFarlane and required a similar process to prepare for rebasing. The pictures do not do the figures justice. The shields are excellently painted and the bronze metallic looks great.<br />

1) Remove from the old base - keep bandaids handy for this step!<br />
2) Remove dust with damp brush and compressed air<br />
3) Add missing heads arms and weapons as required - this was easier than with the Persians as they were in better condition over all.<br />
4) Remove old flock from figure bases and repaint in suitable desert color<br />
5) Sort by unit, matching poses as seemed pleasing<br />
6) Mount to new bases, sand, flock and seal<br />

I am now the proud owner of a Greek army ready for the table top. I missed the joy of painting them myself but at the same time I did not miss it.<br />
<br />
I plan to run the Battle of Marathon with Command and Colors with the map below. Stay tuned for that battle report...<br />

( battlegameofmonth.blogspot.com ). The Persians I am told date back decades. No doubt they are veterans of many battles and I have faced them across the table on more than one occasion. Ross is in the process of paring down his collection while I remain an avid collector.<br />

I am not sure of the figures manufacturer. They are true 25mm so they do not scale up well with the bulk of my collection. Happily, I had acquired a 25mm Greek army to oppose my new Persians but more on them in a later post.</div>

I have always wanted an Eastern army. I have dabbled in Turks, Arabs, Saracens and the like but never splashed for the whole army. I found some good motivation for refurbishing and rebasing my gift into a fighting force fit for my preferred game systems. The more figures on the base, the heavier the formation. I purchased many 2x4" bases from Litko for this project. Expensive but I saved a bundle already on the figures so I felt justified in the expense.</div>

I built the army to be able to play over a 200 year stretch of time. They are best suited to earlier Persians but they tend to lack the fun elephants and scythed chariots so I am suspending belief when my Sparabara represent Takabara or Levies.</div>

These archers were donated to me by a friendly gent at my last visit to Huzzah. I found a home for them as a contingent of archers in the Imperial Persian Army. I think they are 7th century Arabs but I think they look the part. There were a few unpainted archers in the pile but they looked Egyptian or Babylonian. I got as far as cleaning them up and priming them before cooler heads prevailed and I went with the already painted Arabs. Skirmisher have six figures to a base.</div>

The Persians had many light troops as skirmishers and here are javelin and sling armed troops. I had to remove most of the figures from previous bases. I had to reattach weapons arms and heads on many of the figures. They also had a good amount of dust on them, attesting to their venerable age. This I cleaned up with a soft dry brush and an air compressor.</div>

I based the models on 3mm plywood bases. I loaded up the base with PVA glue, added the figures and then sanded the base. I mixed three different kinds of sand to give different sizes to it. I went for a desert look to match my new game mat. I added a yellow grass flock as well as a green flock in spots for contrast. Finished with a matte varnish.</div>

These models are unique in that not only do you have to clue on weapons, you also have to assemble heads and arms to bodies. I spent time cursing this process and can only imagine what the original builder went through to get them to stay together. It would have been less frustrating if I wasn't doing the whole project in one go.</div>

This pack contains 22 scenarios set in a series of fights based on Germany's efforts to break though to relieve the 6th Army trapped near Stalingrad in December 1942. Chain of Command is a platoon based game so the scenarios are snapshots of bigger actions. The first two scenarios are focused on the assigned German troops travelling to Russia by train. They are opposed by Soviet partisans. This gave me the excuse to expand my collection to include Partisans and trains.<br />
<br />
When I visited Victoria this summer, I went to my former favorite hobby shop and purchased a variety of second hand train cars. The missing piece was a locomotive as these included engines and were expensive. I found one locomotive that was just a shell but it was too modern looking for my purposes. I googled trains for this period and will have to build my own locomotive. I will spray bomb the remaining cars black as this seems to have the color of choice at the time. The cars are ho scale which is 1/87. This is a little big for my 15mm figures and terrain which are 1/100 but close enough for me. I had some tracks at home but was not sure what scale they were. It turns out they are 1/160 or n gauge which was too small but the train did sit on the track precariously. It would cost about $40 to upgrade which I am not sure I will do for one or two scenarios. I might make my own...<br />

It has been a long time of hobbying between this latest batch of posts and I have to remember to make not of new additions to my collection. Also featured in the photo are newly minted 15mm Russian village buildings. These were purchased at Huzzah from a company called Things From the Basement. They have removable roofs and I added some teddy bear fur thatching to some of the roofs to add variety. The roads are also new. They were done in a similar style to my cobble roads but are 2.5 inches wide as opposed to 4 to accommodate 15mm scale.<br />

I also purchased a company of partisans from my local game store produced by Battlefront for the Flames of War game. These are nice figures and did not require a lot of prep before painting. One pack gave me all I needed for fielding a platoon and supporting elements. For the scenarios. I can borrow from my large pile of Soviets if I need anything unique.<br />

<br />
I also upgraded my German platoons. My original Chain of Command Germans were cobbled together from leftover figures from producing a Flames of War army. FoW has moved on to a new edition and I have not moved with it, as it would require a significant outlay of cash to upgrade on new rules, cards etc. I also like Chain of Command better as a game so, I went to work pulling figs from my FoW army and rebasing them to Chain of Command.<br />

<br />
I had fun painting the Partisans in non uniform uniforms. The blue I used was a little too bright. I was trying to get a denim look but failed. None the less, they are complete and ready to go. I just need the engine and track and I am ready to play. Despite it being Russia in December, it is southern Russia so the snow is only patchy. I bought some white felt and cut out snow patches to add to me battle field.<br />

I spent a week or so rebasing the Persians and they are complete except for 4 light bow infantry. These are the only figures I will have to paint up. There will be a little scale mismatch as some of the figures are 28mm and some are 25mm.</div>

I ran a test game today with my son, Eric. I was the Persians and got beaten handily but after falling behind early, I was able to battle back to prevent a rout.<br />

It is a new year and I will take the opportunity to invest new energy into this worthwhile project. <br />
<br /><br />
I have not been writing but I have been very busy with the hobby, gaming, painting, shopping and building terrain. This week we played a six man game of Command and Colors Ancients using the Epic rules. The Scenario was Ilipa in which Scipio's Republican Romans took on Hasdrubal's Carthaginians in Spain 206 BC. <br />
<br /><br />
I was able to show off my newly minted, purpose built game mat. 9x26 four inch hexes painted onto a heavy canvas drop sheet. I was inspired by the material and painting Ross McFarlane of <a href="https://gameofmonth.blogspot.com/">https://gameofmonth.blogspot.com/</a> for his European gaming mat. I wanted one for the ancient world and one that shared the look of the C&C game board and this is what I came up with.<br />
<br /><br />
I build a template to put the hexes on and that was the most painstaking part but well worth it. I had a test battle with e Zama scenario as seen below. I am working on refurbishing a Persian and Greek armies. These will be based to match the battle map. I am thinking this will be the game I take to Huzzah this year. Stay tuned for me or this plan.<br />

We have settled on WWII in general and Market Garden with Bolt Action in particular. One of the players came up with the scenario idea and I put together 2 platoons at about 750 pts each. I do not own as many troops as the suggested OoB asked for but I have used what I have to get a game. The scenario has 5 objectives, one in the middle of the board at the crossroads that lead to Arnhem bridge and 2 objectives in each deployment zone. The winner will be in possession of 3 or more objectives at the end of the game.</span><br />

I bought some paint spill canvas 15x12, acrylic caulking and some paint. I want to paint a game mat blatantly stealing the method used by Ross at battlegameofthemonth blog. I also wanted to make some flexible roads that were bigger scale and more modern then the ones I have.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I put the caulk in a bucket and added grey craft paint and water. I smeared this in a 4x3 hunk of canvas. I let it set for about 4 hours and then rolled a textured rolling pin over the top to give it a cobblestone look. In hind sight, I should have let it set longer but it was bed time and I did not want it to set overnight I let this set for another two days. I cut them into 4"x12" strips with one 4 way stop 12"x12". I did not do any curves for simplicity and because at that scale, it is not unreasonable to have a straight stretch of road. I then painted with light grey and white highlights. A wash of black/brown was added and the edging received some flock. I gave them a seal coat of water down PVA to hold everything in place. Pictures are fuzzy but I am very happy with the results.</span><br />

My local game store is hosting Historical Tuesdays Gaming night. This was my chance to meet new players and recruit the GW crowd away form the Dark Side, toward the light of historical miniature gaming. I played a local fellow who proved to be an affable and able opponent. We set up and fought the game in about three hours. I played German veterans from Stalingrad and my opponent played American veterans. Historical opponents if from different periods of the war. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The battle seesawed back in forth with a desultory exchange of fire between Sherman and PAK 38 50mm ATG. There was a decisive moment on the German left flank where my Germans failed to pass an order test and charge an exposed unit of US Rangers. They were charged instead and wiped out. A fun game and the rules came easily and did not get in the way of the fun. I was assisted by a young fellow of about 10yrs age, who drew order dice and commanded the ATG.</span><br />

I also had a fair amount of luck at the raffle table. I bought Eric the latest D&D 5th Ed book <img alt="D&d Mordenkainen's Tome Of Foes by Wizards Rpg Team" class="product-image__image hide" data-a8n="product-image__image" data-original="https://dynamic.indigoimages.ca/books/0786966246.jpg?altimages=true&scaleup=true&maxheight=515&width=380&quality=85&sale=40&lang=en" src="https://dynamic.indigoimages.ca/books/0786966246.jpg?altimages=true&scaleup=true&maxheight=515&width=380&quality=85&sale=40&lang=en" style="left: 0px; width: 100%;" /></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I visited the Things From The Basement stall. Georg had developed a nice set of 15mm versions of his 28mm buildings. I bought the whole set with a plan to make thatched roofs for the WWII Eastern Front games and the stock roofs for ACW and Napoleonics. An excellent addition to my Terrain pile once they are built. I bought some library shelves furniture in 28mm for my D&D game. Built and primered. I will need to make books/potions and Scrolls to stock the shelves.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I bought a 28mm Pz4D that was 3D printed. I have already painted it and it is featured in my last post. Tonight is the first action in a bolt action game vs the US. I showed it to my wife. We have been talking about getting a 3D printer. She was excited by the quality of it and we are a step closer to investing in one. I also bought a die cast Sherman. It is big compared to my other 2 Shermans but for $10 painted, I am happy with it.</span></div>

My boy and I made the 22 hour drive,return trip, but had a great time. I played 2 games of Dragon's Rampant, a game of DonnyBrook that was based on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow and a game of Wings of War. There was lots of eye candy and enough vendors to drain my Visa nicely. Swag report on my next post. Here are some pics from various games...<br />

The weather is improving and I am enjoying the outdoors more. This has meant less time for the game table. D&D continues to be fairly successful. I had my first player death. I was excited to get my Orks on the table and the encounter was a little over powered. 6 archers 6 swordmen, 3 boar riders and 3 bosses. The players were joined by six 0 level guards but they were almost wiped out in an ambush. The Dwarf Barbarian got criticalled by an arrow and then criticalled again with a "00" result on the crit chart. That means your dead. I told the player he had an arrow in the eye and was out of the fight. After the fight, I gave him the choice of taking the die roll and dying or just lose the eye and recovering. He opted for the death result and gave a suitable speech before exiting the scene for the last time. I had just finished a new figure for him. Now I will have to make it a memorial statue...</span><br />

Well it has been some time since my last post. I have been remaining focused on my D&D game. We are coming up on session # 8 in the campaign, which is 7 more sessions that the average D&D campaign lasts, a fact I am well pleased with. To that end I have built some of the terrain on my list that I developed when I first started down this road. Other fun things left on it are scatter ruins, a boat, a variety of traps and webbed up woods.</div>

I also got started on my Christmas present of Black Tree Design WW2 figs to bulk out my collections in 28mm. German specialist troops done. Next will be tackling 50 British Para and trying my hand at camouflage smocks...</div>

The last game the players traveled from a small village to the capitol Whitehall. They battled a hungry troll and a harpy trying to lure them into a swamp monster's feeding pit. They avoided a large orc patrol. When they arrived in Whitehall, they had to bribe the guards to get in because their party contained a Dwarf and the king is on poor terms with the Dwarfs and has an alliance with the local orcs.</div>

I have had a pile of fantasy figures kept in a couple of cardboard boxes in various states of paint and disrepair for many years (I am thinking 12 years). I purchased the bulk of the figures from my friend Brian along with a copy of Warhammer Quest. I never played the game but have slowly been organizing the figures for use in fantasy skirmish games like Song of Blades and Heroes, fantasy battle games like Sword and Spear Fantasy, and now D&D. D&D is very much a skirmish game when it comes to combat.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I went through my card board boxes and inventoried my pile into smaller piles. I then put the piles into ziplock bags, sorted by type. I have found this to help me get motivated to paint them as I just need to grab a bag and plop it on my painting desk rather than look at the mess of figures in the boxes.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">My big project this weekend has been painting my Orcs. I do not have enough for an proper army, but have enough for a proper swarm in D&D. What D&D game would be complete without a proper war with the orcs. They are ready to unleash on my players for Saturday's game.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">I have been busy and managed to take some pictures of the
gaming events from this week. I started the weekend by going to a meeting of my
local Society for Creative Anachronism group. My son and I are interested and
will probably start attending regularly. We planned to make helmets as a start
to making combat armor for upcoming events. Fun! I asked about getting a Norman
nose helmet and the blacksmith said it would not be a problem.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Saturday afternoon I went to my local game club and played
an XWing shoot ‘em up. I was Poe Dameron but got shot down with no kills. Lots
of fun and a great and simple game. The more serious players have researched
good combos and card synergy for boosting their abilities. I felt a little outgunned
and would have preferred a straight flying game.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Saturday night, I went to Zak’s awesome game room for a 15mm
start to our Chain of Command campaign. I played the Germans trying to prevent
a breakthrough by the Americans post D-Day. I started out well, driving off his
infantry as they tried to approach. I took a lot of casualties unfortunately
and this will impact me in future games. Zak sent in his 2 Sherman tanks to
break through my lines. He revved right through the middle of my position and I
blasted off every Panzerschreck and Panzer Faust in my possession. When the
smoke cleared, his tanks were unscathed and I limped off to my next defensive
position in the campaign. Fun and challenging game with Zak and I experiencing
equal levels of command frustration. Sorry for the lack of pics but when games
are intense I often forget to document them!</span><br />

Fighters of poor quality. The plan is to overwhelm the enemy with numbers
rather than skill. I had fun fighting Marty’s Rebel list of 3 XWings and 2
AWings but in the end I was forced to retreat after only inflicting one
casualty. There is a reason my pilots are rated as academy pilots. They have
much to learn and so do I. Learning to fly 8 ships without hitting each other
and asteroids is a big challenge but one I hope to master. Good learning game.</span></div>
