Jezza twisted my arm and told me all the cool lardies are over here. Wargamer, a little TTRPG, occasional painter. Historical, fantasy and sci-fi.

And the MG entrenchment crewed by a Japanese MMG team. Works well and I’m happy with it but I can definitely improve on it going forward. #CoC #15mm #spreadthelard #wargaming

Third roadblock completed. Happy with this as an example of a quickly thrown together block for Brit forces in the Far East. #spreadthelard #wargaming #15mm #CoC

Started painting my mounted Turcopoles for #AssassinsandTemplars Highlights, detailing and tack to do. I guess I might do a fancy blanket or 2 as well.

Not motivated to do something serious I'll revamp these 35 y.o. halberdiers. Just a simple rebase and glow-up, and a dazzling, homemade shield transfer to draw the eye, as I don't want to fully repaint them. I have some in green and blue too, so they could be two separate units for Midgard or so.

Modern Warfare - The attack on Kramatorsk Railway Station. A short video on the Russian forces involved. The Russians are attempting to take and hold a rural train station, which is on a vital supply route. Additionally, they are attempting to abduct the local mayor.

Wee bit of hobvy time this morning and got an AP Military shader wash on the early war fallschirmjager platoon. Baby steps. Still can't take photos, but I also can't paint.

We are drawing close to the end game in our Scottish Corridor campaign for Chain of Command. It's coming down to the wire, with victory within grasp of either side. First, the Germans must try to take Colleville....can they do it as the first attempt?

Saturday was day one of the #SharpPractice 'Beast From The East' event at BIG Bristol my Prussians being paired with Eltjo's Russians against all French comers. Game one was something of a losing draw but game two a glorious victory for our cavalry heavy Russo-Prussian force! #SpreadTheLard

Last four Jannisaries done. Officer done. Whole lot done...

Trent Miniatures from Skytrex and a Warlord officer.

Enjoyed doing these. I've got a nice little Ottoman skirmish force now.

Day Two (today) of 'Beast From The East' #SharpPractice event saw two resounding victories for Eltjo and my Russo-Prussian force, swiftly capturing the town and fighting off the French in game one and spiking the guns and my dragoons smashing a six group French column in the second! #SpreadTheLard

Some new buildings for my 28mm modern eastern European layout, obviously from the very talented and extremely congenial Paul Edwards at @sabotag3d.bsky.social. I’m thinking a corner shop for the first one, then either a lap dancing bar or an orphanage for the larger building.

A Sunday read - the 3rd battle in our Rückzug campaign for Chain of Command!
The Germans have things under control so far but the British have paused to get a new platoon to the front and have extra resources. Will it be enough for breakthrough?
