You, a fool, saw Votann Yaegirs.

I, a bigger fool, saw the Votann 95th Rifles.

Rest assured…the school game club is still going strong! Here are some shots of the game last week…a bunch of Yr 7 & 8s playing a Brit bs German scenario. It’s been so busy lately that I haven’t had the chance to take good photos or post them. #wargaming #wargames #historicalwargames #tabletop

I finally get my 2023 1/72 Crusade project up! #LionRampant @ #canberra regional #Wargaming club. The club runs once a month @ Lanyon Vikings. Today there were 40-50 people playing a mixture of games. I spent a few hours with my father in law and 12 year old daughter playing the Bloodbath scenario from LR. I love seeing my finished armies on the #Tabletop My daughter’s Elite Cavalry and crossbowmen punished her grandad’s nimble Muslim archers and infantry. #wargames #historicalWargames

Hacking n’ spakin’ the bases for these 1/72 Italeri Crusaders. My bases are made from galvanised steel bar…a real chore to cut by hand, but magnetise and fit well into very useful boxes. #Tabletop #Wargaming #miniaturepainting #LionRampant #MiniatureWargames #historicalWargames #wargames

Slow progress, but very happy with these first unarmoured Normans I did. They were fun to paint and helped me figure out how to make a bunch of colours not look like a circus!
Also worth noting that I'm too cheap to buy transfers, so the shields are hand painted.
Had my first go with my home made static grass applicator on these too. Really made the grass look deep and lush I think!

Been a little quiet over here due to work and home stress, but I've got about 4 points of Normans assembled for Saga. Gotta try out some colours next.

Working on a test model for some WW2 Brits. Fairly happy with this for table-ready! Not sure about the basing though. Anyone got any suggestions?

Calling this Victrix System XI foot artillery piece done!
I *think* i got the flaps right for regular foot artillery, rather than fringed epaulettes for guard or master gunners, but there you go :)

Cannon is now the right colour!
Also made some headway on the crew. Bit of highlights and tidying up and hopefully I'll get onto the base tomorrow.

Finally finished the first unit of Baccus' 6mm Wars of the Roses I picked up at Fiasco! Did these in Richard III's colours cos why not :)

A little light reading courtesy of Leeds Libraries!

Anyone know where to get a decent short summery flock? The stuff I've got is too long for the 6mm figures I'm working on at the mo.

Forgot to get a picture, but had my first go at Sharp Practice over at the amazing Leeds Wargaming Club tonight. Forgot to take any pictures, but had a good time! Before anyone did anything one of my opponent's men decided to go and try to seduce any ladies in a nearby barn.
My voltigeurs got shot A LOT and I managed to fire a 32 man volley into my opponent's lines twice in one turn.
Cracking fun :)

Popped into Mirfield Miniatures today since I was in the area. Decided to pick up the Hail Caesar rules cos I'm gonna use them for the 6mm War of the Roses.
Got this email as soon as I got home -_-

Assembled this bunch of Perry Peninsular British ready for a try at Sharp Practice on Wednesday night. Continually impressed with how good the Perry plastics are! Also enjoy the magnetised sabot bases very much :)

So this is a bit disappointing. I managed to launch a few of my 6mm Baccus War of the Roses figures across the room while removing them from the runners. Annoying, but my own dumb fault!
I ordered some Heroics & Ros 6mm to fill in the ranks a bit, but it turns out they're quite a bit smaller than the Baccus ones so probably not usable :/

So the pits full of skulls are not *super* historically accurate, but the old Realm of Battle board is still super handy :)
#wargames #Citadel #RealmOfBattle #historicalWargames

Waiting on bases arriving, but my current project is these 6mm War of the Roses bods. Not sure what system to use but thinking Hail Caesar or maybe the new Valour and Fortitude rules from Perry Minis qnd Jervis Johnson.

Had a lot of fun building a bunch of guards and a few more SAS men (I have six SAS already painted) for #02HundredHours which is an asymmetric game of ww2 commando night raids that I'm really looking forward to getting to the table with some friends next month #historicalWargames
