Hi Didn’t post a report on mission 1 but that was a beach landing which ended in a stalemate basically giving both allied forces and Ze Germans a bonus for mission 2. Here’s the table setup The objectives for the US were the two well dug in 88’s I recently finished. They’d have six Sherman’s, Continue reading Mission 2: The Breakout Road to Cherbourg
G’day, Ive been calling this ww2 project of mine bolt action ‘48 because its mostly based on warlord games minis. Plus my setting was 1948, as in the war had continued on and not ended in ‘45, buuuut as I’m using homebrew rules I’m thinking a name change is in order. Any suggestions? The other Continue reading Bolt action ‘48 part 57
Guten Tag allerseits, Look I know it’s incredibly wrong to like the Waffen SS but if we look at it objectively they were the quintessential bad guys. Along with all the other Nazis of course. I’ve always liked the bad guys but obviously in this case I don’t like them I just… geez I feel Continue reading Bolt action ‘48 part 56

Good day all, Finished an 8th army 25 pounder artillery piece this afternoon. Fun to paint and I like artillery pieces because they end up being little mini dioramas. This bad boy could fire up to 12.25km’s at a rate of 6-8 rounds a minute. This gun was particularly useful in the North African campaign Continue reading Bolt Action ‘48 part 53
G’day Technically yesterday’s post should’ve been part 52 but meh who’s keeping track of these things? Certainly not me. I sent the wife away for some RnR so it’s just me and the little one at home. Took the daughter to her dance lessons, made her lunch and watched a few episodes of the Simpsons Continue reading Bolt Action ‘48 part 52
Hello, Well yep I’ve been some what absent but despite the rumours that I’d gone off and started a cult I’ve been busy with the hobby and other things. First, “other things.” I built a greenhouse using, mostly reclaimed bits and bobs including nuts and screws. Some of the timber was even donated to me Continue reading AWOL IRO
Hi Over a year ago I posted part 1 to this secret project of mine and I’m sure you’ve all forgotten which is fair haha. As a reminder here’s a pic taken from part 1. Lately I’ve been feeling a “miniature hobby block” of sorts. So many projects but wasn’t feeling overly motivated for any. Continue reading A secret project part 2
